[@Dblade26] Having since taken a look at this, I'm [i]really[/i] not a big fan of Ted Kord having been an Agent of SHIELD. In all honesty, I think it makes what is otherwise a pretty quirky origin into a generic one. I'm fine with Kord having worked for SHIELD in a [i]solely[/i] R&D role but I think the spy angle is a bit of a dud.
