AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.: Another Glimpse Of What 'Raina' Has Become In New Promo

Most of the footage in this latest promo for the return of Marvels Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. just recaps Raina's (Ruth Negga) season 2 journey so far, but right at the end we get another brief hint as to the type of Inhuman she transformed into at the end of the last episode...

The prevailing theory is that this Raina is actually an incarnation of the Marvel Comics Raina (a member of the Saurid race from the Savage Land), and the more we see of the plant-like Inhuman she became at the end of the midseason finale of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D the more likely that's looking. She did love those flowery dresses after all! The following vid features another brief tease right at the end.

 


"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." returns for a dynamic, action-packed second half of season two, TUESDAY, MARCH 3 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. After discovering an alien city with ties to his resurrection, Coulson and his team destroyed it before the forces of Hydra could claim its secrets, eliminating the villainous Whitehall (Reed Diamond) in the process. But new threats to the world have arisen, including Skye's father, Cal (Kyle McLachlan), who now seeks retribution against Coulson for stealing his revenge against Whitehall; a disturbing alliance between former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Ward (Brett Dalton) and Agent 33; the enigmatic Raina (Ruth Negga), who struggles with her transformation into something inhuman by the alien Obelisk and seeks vengeance; and Skye (Chloe Bennet), who developed mysterious new powers from the Obelisk but whose lack of experience with her new abilities may threaten the safety of those she loves. Meanwhile, Bobbi (Adrianne Palicki) and Mack (Henry Simmons) begin the next phase of a plan which seems to have grave repercussions for Coulson and his team, who are unaware that there's another mysterious force moving against them. And as Hunter (Nick Blood) is forced to make the biggest choice of his life, Coulson will find his mission threatened by this shocking endgame. In the midseason premiere, "Epidemic," Coulson's team must deal with the consequences of their war with Hydra as shocking revelations threaten to tear them apart, and Hydra makes a dangerous move that may involve a traitor in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s midst.

this from the synopsis "who struggles with her transformation into something inhuman by the alien Obelisk and seeks vengeance"

typical villain blame the heroes for what was her own fault, she is gonna be ugly now and not like it and blame it on the heroes despite the fact that she spent the entire 1st half of season 2 wanting to be transformed by the oblisk.

Agent Carter is a better show, Hayley Atwell is a better actress than lets say chloe bennet(overrated). The story of Carter and time period also have more appeal to me. Agents of shield doesn't get to the point. It wont surprise me if A.O.S will get canceled. I put my money on Daredevi all the way.

I hope the pacing of this season will get better, or else this show is doomed.

I don't get what she wants vengeance for. SHE was the one who wanted to be transformed, not Daisy. Did the effects make her mentally ill? She has no one to blame for her apparently unattractive transformation but herself (though if she knew that her Earth-616 counterpart was a mutant...).

Show's pacing, kidding right? Since 2nd half of S1, all the show has been doing is gaining momentum and increasing in quality...

I honestly don't think Raina is supposed to be Raina from the comic books. Shows can make up characters...not everyone has to be a comic character in disguise.

darkknight2149- i mentioned the same thing above, it's a common thing among villians who blame the heroes for the things in their lives that go wrong for them.

hope she has some cool powers based of the image above im guessing she might be able to shoot her spikes that's usually a common thing for CB characters with spikes lol.

@kinghulk
I hope there is more to it than that and she has at least has a somewhat understandable reason to misunderstand or pin the situation on Daisy/Skye such as slight mental illness or a matter of perception because, otherwise, her hatred of Daisy could seem dumb and manufactured.
kinghulk
kinghulk - 2/21/2015, 1:03 PM
darkknight2149- villians tend to be irrational i imagine she could have a mental break down or somthing like that and then blames everything on skye as a coping mechanism. they can make up any excuse really, maybe she thinks sky messed it up somehow because sky didnt turn into a monster but she did.
