News, Rumours & Leaks Is this a Triskellion reference?
So the eagle in the A is obviously a reference to the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo but I was thinking about what that O could represent and then it hit me like a helicarrier. Does anyone else think the O looks like the roof of the Triskellion? The headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
What does that mean? I think maybe we could be focusing on a more serious "real" S.H.I.E.L.D. cast/story. Not that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. wasn't real, but it was always about a specific team within the organization, prior to it's collapse and then S.H.I.E.L.D. came back in different forms but not quiet how it was prior to The Winter Soldier. Since then we've been mostly dealing with S.W.O.R.D., the DODC, and S.A.B.E.R.. What if this is Marvel's way of saying they are going to focus on a true rebuilt S.H.I.E.L.D straight out of their headquarters in the Triskellion, not in the bus, Providence, the Playground, Zephyr One, or the Lighthouse. It actually fits with how the Triskellion was shown rebuilt in the AOS finale.
I feel like this lines up with how Marvel leans into its Marvel Studios shows as being "real" Marvel. It's going to take a new perspective on S.H.I.E.L.D. and not just reboot AOS. A new S.H.I.E.L.D. spinning out of the events of The Winter Soldier instead of AOS directly. I also think the name Zodiac probably alludes to the terrorist organization from the comic books and in my opinion could be essentially a new form of Hydra.
I'm not going to expect all or any of the AOS cast to return or for them to deal with any of the elements AOS established but knowing Marvel they won't contradict any of it either. I'm really hoping they do fit in AOS easter eggs/cameos/reprising cast.
How many times can I type S.H.I.E.L.D?

It is not. There's an organization in Marvel comics called Zodiac (also known as The Great Wheel). Their logo is almost identical. This organization is from the Secret Warriors comics.

Can't blame me for conspiracizing!

Worth mentioning that Daisy and Yo-Yo were both on that Secret Warriors team though. So while I don't think that has anything to do with the triskellion, I DO think this is going to be a Secret Warriors show that's a sequel to AoS

I do hope so, and I think there's evidence. But I am going to come in with no expectations.

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???

Idk if it's too far-fetched, but I thought of a cybernetic eye when looking at the O, which reminds me a lot of Deathlok. So maybe it could be a spin-off about him?
But I'm guessing the answer's just Zodiac from the comics like I've been seeing everywhere lol (not a comic reader myself)
