'Secret Warrior's Coming to AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

MARVEL'S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. returns for a powerful third season introducing new friends and foes inspired by the critically acclaimed "Secret Warriors" comic series. In the aftermath of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s battle with Jiaying and the Inhumans, Director Coulson will search the world for more powered people and assemble an extraordinary new team to deal with threats unlike the world has ever seen. However, the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will soon find out they're not the only ones tracking down these new Inhumans.

Coulson and S.H.I.E.L.D. are already searching for new recruits, and at San Diego Comic-Con, ABC and MARVEL'S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. are giving fans a chance to be part of the initiative. From Thursday, July 9 through Saturday, July 11, S.H.I.E.L.D. ambassadors will be searching the convention for the most dedicated fans and rewarding them with limited edition "Secret Warriors" pins. Follow @AgentsofSHIELD to see what the S.H.I.E.L.D. ambassadors are up to.

Those lucky enough to be recruited to the "Secret Warriors" at Comic-Con will complete their first mission by posting a photo of themselves wearing the pin to social media using #SHIELDSecretWarriors. "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." cast members will select some of their favorite photos, which could get posted to the show's official Twitter page, @AgentsofSHIELD.*
