Agents of Shield. I've been mulling over who the big bad is.

Centipede is a front for Cybertek, meaning we're about to see J August Richards become Deathlok. Further, I predict that while Harlan Ryker will play a role, the real big bad is someone up the food chain at the Roxxon Corporation. (Who's logo we have seen in the background in several eps and is Cybertek's parent company) Most likely this will turn out to be Hugh Jones, CEO of Roxxon, longtime dabbler in creating supersoldiers, and sometime owner of another Cosmic Cube level pan-dimensional artifact, the Serpent Crown.

However, just to twist things a little further, and more or less bring the whole deal full circle, there's one more player in this: Jones was being manipulated not only by the power behind the crown, but also by another person.

Madam Hydra.

I've been waiting for Agents of SHIELD to get good more than I've been worrying about the main villain. They finally got some momentum going with the past two episodes... and decided to take a two week break to celebrate.

Great.

Personally I want the Mad Thinker to be in there somewhere, played by John Noble, but with his promotion to regular status on Sleepy Hollow that's unlikely to happen.

Don't worry too much, it would seem that things will be definitely continuing to pick up steam when they come back.

Don't want to spoiler it too much but next ep we get something we've all been expecting to happen.

Please see the existing S.H.I.E.L.D. thread for the ongoing S.H.I.E.L.D. discussion about all things S.H.I.E.L.D. - thanks!
