Thanks to ComicBook.com, we have our first look at Natalia Cordova-Buckley as Elena "Yo Yo" Rodriguez; better known to Marvel Comics fans as Secret Warriors speester, Slingshot. The site describe this Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. take on the character as "a street-wise Colombian woman who will be based on the Jonathan Hickman comic creation."

In the comics, Yo Yo can blast off at super speeds but then bounces back to the place she began running from - hence the code-name. It remains to be seen if she'll have those exact powers on the sho.



Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to ABC at 9 pm EST on Tuesday, March 8.

I love this show, but honestly I hope they don't show Colombia as a narcotrafic/murder/crimes country, Colombia has changed a lot and is actually quite beautiful now

surprised it took this long to confirm it since there were reports of her casting towards the end of last year. hopefully this means we are finally getting at least a tv spot for the return soon since its less than a month away

I've started reading Secret Warriors a few weeks ago, solid comic. Its worth a read if you like the AOS tv show, since they are kinda similar. Coulson seems to act a lot like Nick Fury this season.

I'm excited I'd like jr. Druid as a character as well but we can't always get what we want. More SUPER POWERS!! I already know what the season finale will be if the are sticking to source materials.
