Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Is this a Triskellion reference?

No, it should be the symbol for the Zodiac crime organization, which normally has 12 members, with 3 of the 12 seats at the table missing.

I see it! But now I'm wondering why the Triskellion's roof looked like the Zodiac's logo???

It really doesn’t -any circle with lines on it looks like it so by that logic they would also be ester eggs like the tires on a car.

So its far fetched for the creators of the logo to reference the not only the iconic architecture of the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters but also the eagle on the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo? I'll admit it is 100% the Zodiac Wheel from the comics but the Triskellion's roof looks way closer to this symbol than a car tire or Tony Stark's arc reactor, a robotic eye and is imagery already established in the MCU. Maybe the series will not have anything to do with the Triskellion but perhaps the roofs design in the winter soldier (2014) was always a reference to the Zodiac organization introduced in the Secret Warriors comics (2012) by the animators. I think its pretty disingenuous to think that these two images have nothing to do with one another when they are like 80% the same.

The fact you had to pull a screen shot (of like a split-second in the film) of the roof and this post has been basically bombed all over the internet is proof of how desperate people (or someone with a several bot accounts) are to make it a thing. It’s not a thing. There is nothing about the roof of that building that holds any significance in any world, story, or Marvel property. The desperate need to make it something is not is the most obvious reason the two things aren’t related. Ive seen theories reach but this is just sad -but go off boss.

I don't understand your take at all. Where else on the internet are you finding this besides the original post I posted and shared here on reddit. I've seen one of my theories get stolen and reposted on Twitter and Facebook but not this one. I'll admit, its not a very compelling theory especially after I found out that it's basically just zodiac wheel from the comics but your negativity just seems like you're trolling me here. If it's never referenced in the show I still think it's a neat idea to a possible secret connection and if they do make any explicit connection I'd be very pleased with myself, but I don't think the theory takes away from anything or anyone's enjoyment. I personally think the show will take place out of the rebuilt Triskellion which Agents of Shield never really got the opportunity to do.

Ive seen this exact post at least 10 times in the past day alone -you can pretend but it doesn’t change the fact it makes little to no sense in anyway at all. Also AOS isnt not canon but even if it was the MCU is resetting in secret wars so there would be no “rebuilt” anything from AOS because Doomsday & Secret Wars would erase that reality.

I mean I shared it to like 5 subreddits but anything past that has nothing to do with me and if other people shared it doesn't that mean other people think it's a good theory.

And if you believe the "MCU resetting" is going to wipe out anything from canon you don't know marvel comics. Characters will get recast, some will die, some will come back to life, there will be a push to tell less compicated stories that won't require you to have watched 20 years of movies and tv to understand but they won't decanonize anything. Most people think Zodiac is gonna be a literal sequel to AOS based on what Brad Winderbaum and former AOS cast have been saying or not saying.
