AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.: 'Lincoln' Gets A Superhero Codename For Season 3

As season 3 of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. draws nearer, Marvel has begun to release new promo videos which spotlight the individual characters. First up is the Inhuman formerly know as Lincoln Campbell, but from now on we'll be referring to him by another name...

Electric-shock Boy! Just kidding - he'll actually be known as Sparkplug. The below video also provides a handy rundown of his powers, but doesn't actually feature any footage from season 3 of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. unfortunately. The closest thing to an established Marvel Comics character named Sparkplug is the pyrokinetic Inhuman, Spark, who is actually aligned with new season 3 baddie, Lash. Lincoln (Luke Mitchel) is probably a completely different character of course, but there's always the possibility they'll merge the two for the purposes of the show. Either way, it's a safe bet he'll end up on the new team of Secret Warriors with Daisy.

 

Newcomer Lincoln, aka Sparkplug, saw a lot of action on Marvel's #AgentsofSHIELD. What exactly are his powers? We've got the answer right here:

Posted by Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on Wednesday, 2 September 2015

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” returns for an action-packed third season, with Director Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) and Agent Daisy Johnson (Chloe Bennet) leading the charge as S.H.I.E.L.D. searches the world for more powered people in the aftermath of their epic battle with Jiaying and her army of Inhumans. However, Coulson and the team soon find out that they are not the only group looking for these new Inhumans.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to ABC at 9 p.m. EST on September 29.

Sparky? really? That's the best they could think of...Sparkplug, sparky...ugh. These writers are garbage, or if I were to give THEM the benefit of the doubt, they are either writing down to their target audience or think they are writing for the 8-12 year old demographic. That's based on their inability to conjure up decent dialogue, group dynamics, a worthy plot line, interesting characters..and yeah...Sparkplug.



Next they'll show him working on a car or something, and THAT'S how he gets the name. Stupid.

What a surprise, an Agents of Shield article and three quarters of the posters are blocked. The wheel never stops turning.

On Topic: I can't wait for this show to come back, it is easily one of the must see show on the telly.

No more runnin, I aim to misbehave...

I don't have a problem with the name. I'm just glad he has a code name. I would had hated it more if the other characters kept referring to him by his given name, Lincoln. I don't like it when writers do that in the comics -like Jean Grey, Kitty Pryde, etc. It gives me hope that Daisy gets referred to as 'Quake'. Anyhow, there are a lot of electrical based characters in comics -I figure most of the best names are gone by now. So what if it sounds corny -people will get used to it. There are A LOT of corny superhero names in comics so complaining about it here makes no sense.

I believe this name was coined by another character towards him during season 2. So it makes sense he would keep and embrace it.
