Agents Of SHIELD: 20 Easter Eggs And In-Jokes You Probably Missed
13. The Blue Alien Is A Kree?
One of the seasons biggest reveals was that Coulsons post-Avengers resurrection was due in large part to a serum derived from alien blood in particular, one very blue, very dead alien that Coulson discovers in the secret base he invaded with Agents Garrett and Triplett...shortly before the whole place falls in on itself in a self-destruction protocol they inadvertently activated. The race and identity of said alien has been a point of intense scrutiny since the episode aired, but we might have gotten a huge clue in the episode Yes Man, thanks to visiting Asgardian Sif (Jaimie Alexander). During a quiet moment on the teams Bus, Coulson quietly asks the warrior if shes ever encountered any blue aliens during her travels throughout the nine realms, to which she immediately reels off a list of about half a dozen races, none of which jump out except one. The most recognisable name Sif mentions is Kree a term familiar to comic readers, as theyve played huge parts in the lives of many storylines and characters lives, most notably the various Captain Marvels.
