I'm well aware what was clearly stated before the show aired. And I said there was no way in hell it was going to work. It didn't. Now they're doing this show the *right* way.
No, not suggesting Skye is Lorelei at all. We already know that Elena Satine will be playing Lorelei.
What I'm saying is that, now that we have proof that some of the existing characters *are* comic-book canon after all, it's now more likely that Skye and/or Coulson could come from the pages of Marvel, too, as many have speculated.
I'd personally prefer Coulson to remain an original character, even if he turns out to be alien, robotic, and/or superpowered; but I'd be ecstatic if Skye actually turns out to be Jessica Drew.
