TV Line has the scoop that two new S.H.I.E.L.D. agents will be reporting for duty in the shows fourteenth episode. The site reports:
Episode 14 will introduce two recurring characters: an African-American agent who specializes in combat/weapons, and a high-level S.H.I.E.L.D. agent/munitions expert who has past ties to both Coulson and Ward.
Th next episode of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is the tenth. That one features the return of Mike Peterson (J. August Richards) who is now a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent (really, didn't he murder someone in cold blood?!). We've also previously seen the debut of Victoria Hand (Saffron Barrows). Will these two new Agents be original creations for the show or will they be based on characters from the pages of Marvel Comics? If its the latter, I know quite a few fans wouldn't mind Clay Quartermain being one of the Agents.
