The Agents of SHIELD midseason finale brings us a reckoning for Ghost Rider.
ThisAgents of SHIELDreview contains spoilers.
The hell, Marvel?
Yeah, he was corrupted by the power of the Darkhold, but why?
Well, this week we find out, and damn is it effective.
Bitterness has transformed Morrow into a world smasher just as hellfire transforms his nephew into the Ghost Rider.
I just feel that Morrow could have been a great and multi-faceted villain this entire time.
Thats the stuff classic villains are made of.
But at least we get to experience all for a little while.
So I guess we must say goodbye to Ghost Rider, at least for the time being.
By episodes end, Coulson drops a delicious hint about a previous Ghost Rider who once disappeared and returned.
Now that just sounds like a big fat hint for a possible Ghost Rider series, dont it.
We can only hope.
Multiple Ghost Riders in their own show and the return of the suddenly vastly compelling Eli Morrow?
But as Ghost Rider ends, the next story begins.
It looks like the second half of this season of MarvelsAgents of SHIELDwill be all AIDA all the time.
Remember now, AIDA is more than an android.
She is now a magic android as she has absorbed the Darkhold into her programming.
Thats just all sort of badass.
Thats all sorts of screwed up.
AIDA looks like shes going to be a great boon to our agents, right?
But there is some happiness as well this week.
Mack and Yo Yo finally hook up after a season and a half of awkwardly flirting.
Daisys story takes a happy turn as well this week.
You see, Morrows magic is creating seismic activity.
Now, all of a sudden, Daisy is seen as the hero she deserves to be.
But it is the last scene that will make Marvel fans wait with baited breath forSHIELDs return.
This week, they share that drink, but thats not May.
Marvel Moments
LMDs were a pretty big deal back in the Silver Age.
Did anyone else get the feeling Ultron was in AIDAs secret chamber.
How sick would that have been?
Jeffrey Mace suited up this week in his SHIELD battle armor.
I really wish his classic Golden Age Patriot suit was somehow incorporated into his battle gear.
With all the Jay Garrick action onThe Flashtonight, that would have been Golden Age overload.
Cute little line this week.
Coulson tells Daisy that he would like her to be the face of SHIELD.
Daisy replies with something along the lines of Only in the comics.
Because of course, Daisy was leader of SHIELD in the comics for a time.
The mention of another Ghost Rider gives me the nerd happies.
Anything that gets us Johnny Blaze in TV form will make me a very giddy geek.
