Everyone has their own story: in the fast-paced and glamorized world of film and TV, authenticity is needed.

They have allowed people who have lived in extraordinary circumstances to claim agency over their narratives.

We watchTVshows for their innovative stories, great plots, and fun characters. But sometimes, those characters transcend the shows they’re in because of their incredible drip. Indeed,we do tend to remember some characters for their brilliant sense of styleand fashion, considering them synonymous with the fashion trends of the times.

Marvel and ABC have debuted the first trailer forAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.Season 3, and it’s packed with Inhuman teases. So long Skye! Agent Coulson’s protege has fully embraced her new identity as the Daisy Johnson, and looks to be wielding her new-found powers with confidence – which is good, because we also get our first look at Lash, and he’s a mighty sinister looking monster. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.Season 3 has a lot on its plate (likely in an attempt to fill out a universe for the series, which continues to stay rather isolated from the cinematic MCU)....

Long before Marvel Studios began to produce TV shows with Marvel Cinematic Universe’s stars, Netflix created a shared universe populated with Marvel’s street-level superheroes:Daredevil,Jessica Jones,Luke Cage, andIron Fist. Unfortunately, while the initial idea was to connect Marvel’s Netflix shows with cinematic releases, the two universes were not united by more than a few references scattered around for fans to find. Even so, Marvel’s Netflix series had a lot more hits than misses, which makes it a shame that a fantastic cast was swept under the rug once Marvel Television shut down in 2019....
