The world has changed, a new era of heroes begins, but even in the age of heroes, there are still those who must act in the shadows, for the greater good. That's where they come in, the Agents of SHIELD.
After "Fury," SHIELD director Nick Fury realizes that despite the Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Spider-Man of the world, the world is no longer safe; on the contrary, the world has never been so dangerous and chaotic, with so many high-level potential threats. In response, Fury prepares a secret team to act on his behalf, in his interest and the world's, answering directly to him and no one else. The chosen one to lead is Phil Coulson, who was supposedly dead.
With the team formed, bringing together familiar names and new names from the Marvel universe, Coulson leads this team to face the threat of AIM, which, now led by MODOK, is creating its own cosmic cube.
