This short trailer leaves us with many questions. I’m still not sure when this is going to take place in the Marvel timeline. Is the show set before or after the events of The Avengers. One might guess that the show is set before the movie since Agent Coulsono is alive and well. Although, since S.H.I.E.L.D has a tendancy to use LMDs or Life Model Decoys for thier higher ranking agents. If that’s the case it’s quite possible that Coulson’s death in the Avengers was simply a motivational fake-out.
Look for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D on ABC this fall.
