Marvel Heads To TV With Agents Of Shield

With the success of Marvel's The Avengers and the second cycle of films starting with Iron Man 3 it looks like you'll be able to watch more from this comic book world on TV thanks to Agents of Shield. Check out the trailer above...
Agents of Shield works just as you might imagine, featuring the spies and agents on the ground who have to deal with all the things the super heroes can't or won't appear for. It's going to be good to see Agent Coulson back, although how he managed to survive what happened in The Avengers no one knows!
It wouldn't be the first time a comic book character has been bought back from the dead.
What do you think? Will this be a show you'll be tuning in for?
Let me know below!
Rumour has it that’s ‘hero for hire’ LUKE CAGE @ 0:13 secs. COULSON LIVES!
I believe that this is set before the Avengers movie though I could be wrong. But… yeah I’m really excited for this one.

Long live the son of Coul ! 🙂
It’s some time since I seen the part where he dies. Was is Nick Fury that said he was dead? We know he lied to the Captain to get him motivated by showing him blood covered cards. He just needed to give some of them a reason to fight. Coulson could have very well survived the attack, just taken out of duty. Of course if he had a near fatal wound he was most likely not in a position to object to Fury spinning his tail of his death.
