With Joss Whedon saying that his S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series will focus on a new group of character, as opposed to those already introduced the Marvel Cinematic Universe it will tie into, TVLine.com has the first info on just who these new characters will be.
The first thing that Marvel fans will notice is that none of these names are familiar from the comics. No Clay Quartermain, no Contessa, no Jimmy Woo, etc…
My two thoughts on that are:
A: Perhaps Whedon really does intend to have the focal characters in this series be brand new. I seriously doubt that means no pre-existing Marvel characters will appear, but simply that the initial series regulars will be newly-created characters. Lest we forget, the beloved Agent Coulson from the Marvel movies, who played a notable role in Whedon’s Avengers film, was not from the comics either.
