MARVEL’S AGENTS OF SHIELD Season Five will pick up with Earth’s heroic operative in outer space.

Got to love cosplayers! Sure you have the classic icons like Batman, Superman, Avengers and always lots of Harley Quinns! At Emerald City Comicon in Seattle this weekend I was thrilled to see a first of her kind – at least I’ve never seen a cosplayer honor Agent Abigail Brand of S.W.O.R.D.

Only fitting that the green-haired female Nick Fury of outer space appear at the Emerald City Comicon. Josh Lewis of KOMONEWS.COM captured this pic of Agent Brand with her boyfriend Beast of the X-Men. Brand was created by Joss Whedon during his run of Astonishing X-Men.

“Oh My Stars and Garters!” Indeed!
