[BatsDC]

Wouldn't be a bad guess, but could be a red herring.

 

[kosh33]

maybe it a LMD in the chair,
i dont think they will show him so early

 

[Alex_Kidd]

So early... Is the 17th episode on 22, that's not so early...

 

[marcvader]

What if the man in the chair is none other than the real Coulson/LMD Coulson.


Jk, I've no idea, but it better be a known commodity in the Marvel U or I'm quitting this show.

[Visiting Arkham]

Isn't episode 16 on March 25th, this upcoming Tuesday? Unless they are taking yet another break I don't know about.

 

[Pokkle]

No episode on march 25th but from April, there will be no break for the remaining 7 episodes.

 

[JAVA]

Nope it's on April 1st.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

[Gr0oT]

The dude in the wheelchair sounds like Douriff to me.

Anyone have a link that can be viewed outside of the US?

Spoiler

Brad Dourif playing someone named Thomas Nash.

Don't you think that's reaching?

 

[TheVileOne]

No.

 

[SpideyFan866]

No.

Well let me simplify this for you:


They would never spoil the identity of the Clairvoyan.


So it's not him.

 

[Gr0oT]

Seems like a huge waste of Dourriff to have him as a created character.
Told you guys it sounded like him in the wheelchair though... But what the hell, there must be a bunch of great characters, villains and such, canon to the comics, that Dourriff could have blown out of the park.

So TheVileOne, how good was the episode, being as you saw it, and can you spoil for me how Deathlok ends up looking, in spoiler tags for all those who don't want to know.

 

[BlackDoomShadow]

I posted a description of the episode over in the general thread. Deathlok [blackout]has a metal plate under half his face[/blackout].

So how good does it look? Do you think it'll be his permanent look or did they leave it open for him to fix it, oh and thank you.

[blackout]You don't see it directly. Skye uses an x-ray thing and sees the plate under his face, but you don't get a good look at it. It'll probably be fully revealed in a future episode.[/blackout]

Hmm, well obviously they milk this [BLACKOUT]because they milk everything else in this infernal format, they really have an ass backwards way of doing things and I hate it. [/BLACKOUT]

[BLACKOUT]If the character is basically a man trying to find his humanity when he has lost so much I can't see them maintaining the look once it is revealed being as they obviously have some sort of prosthetic skin, or are we made to believe that they fitted him with the plate and left him with his real skin?[/BLACKOUT]

[BLACKOUT]Regardless I just hope they managed to pull off the look properly, the chest plate hasn't given much hope.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[TheVileOne]

No here's what it is:

Spoiler

One of Fitz's drone things is checking an area. It finds Deathlok and it has like an X-ray silhouette of his body. The X-ray silhouette of Deathlok/Peterson basically looks identical to his comic version. His face plate from the comics is there, but its currently under his skin. In this episode he got a new gauntlet. It seems he's gradually becoming more decked out, cybernetic.

I never said he was Clairvoyant dude. He's playing someone named Thomas Nash. The Marvel link said so.

That sounds totally awesome, [BLACKOUT]any indication as to whether he will be undergoing further modifications? Is the gauntlet thing you're referring to what we see in the promo that shoots mini rockets?
