Updated (7/13): The full video for the panel has now been released. Check it out below.
Also be sure to check out the SDCC special edition of our podcast It’s All Connected as we discuss both Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 3 and Agent Carter Season 2.
The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. panel just came to a close, and unfortunately, while there were some teases regarding the upcoming third season – there’s not much news to share. As they did last year, Marvel showed off the bloopers reel during the panel, which will be included with the DVD and Blu-Ray when it’s released this September, and what little news they had to share was saved for the very end of the panel.
According to S.H.I.E.L.D. TV on Twitter, there was a video was shown during the panel that talked about Coulson and Skye putting together a team of Secret Warriors. This isn’t exactly news, as Variety has already confirmed that Secret Warriors will be the focus of season three. What is interesting, however, is that B.J. Britt (Agent Antoine “Trip” Triplett ) apparently made an appearance of some kind in the video. What does this mean exactly? As of right now, nothing, but it’s definitely something worth taking note of!
The most interesting bit of information from the panel was the announcement that an Inhuman named Lash would be introduced in season three. Lash is a newer character, having first appeared in Inhuman #1 by Charles Soule and Joe Madureira. According to the Marvel Wikia page, Lash “was one of the few chosen among his generation to receive the gift of Terrigenesis, an honor he believed not every member of his race was due.”
This means we can expect Lash to track down new Inhumans and decide if he feels they’re worthy of the gift of Terrigenesis. And with new Inhumans expected to be brought into the show for season three, it’ll be interesting to see how many of them make it out alive – and how they deal with Lash.
Here are a few worthy tweets from those lucky enough to attend the panel:
