ABC and Marvel Collaborate For A New 
Superhero Series
After the recent announcement of Marvel’s Agents of Shield 
ending, ABC is in the talks again with a new female superhero 
series collaboration with Marvel. ABC was the first network to 
land a Marvel TV series, and the network is all set to ride the 
success wave of Agents of Shield.
Marvel’s Agents of Shield was initially set to have five 
installments; however, Marvel recently disclosed that they were 
offered two more short seasons by ABC network. Marvel agreed 
to the offer, and hence Agents of Shield got a separate timeline 
from Marvel Cinematic Universe. ABC brought MCU’s Phil 
Coulson back from the dead for their series Agents of Shield.
New  SSuperrherro  SSerriiess
ABC  has  had  a  few  faiilled  attempts  wiith Agent  Carter endiing  after  two  seasons  
and Inhumans onlly  getting  one  iinstallllment.  ABC  allllegedlly  triied  a  few  more  
times  to  lland  a  show  wiith  Marvell  as  the  show  programmer,  and  now  they  are  iin  
talks about a new Female Superhero series.
The status of the talked female-led superhero series is still unknown. Karey 
Burke,  the  Entertaiinment  Presiident  of  ABC  network,  has  been  tight-lliipped  as  not  
to  proviide  any  unnecessary  iinformation  regardiing  the  new  seriies.  She  onlly  saiid  
that  iit  iis  goiing  to  be something  brand  new for  most  part.
The  new  show  has  jjoiined  a  llong  lliine  of  Marvell  shows  whiich  ABC  has  started  or  
has  shown  theiir  iinterest  iin.  Another  allll-femalle  seriies  by  Allllan  Heiinberg,  who  
allso  wrote  Wonder  Woman,  iis  the  most  recent  examplle  of  iit.  The  show  was  
reported  to  be  dead  at  the  start  of  thiis  year.  The  mysteriious  John  Riidlley,  
Marvell’s  Most  Wanted  and  Damage  Controll  are  other  shows  that  faiilled  to  grow  
for  ABC  network.
However this time around ABC’s hit show Agents of Shield is 
coming to an end, so they have to find a replacement for it. 
Marvel comics are filled with female superheroes, but their 
options are limited because Marvel Studios does not have any 
intention of showing it on the big screen. So ABC will likely try 
to avoid taking any significant characters from the comics.
The tease by Karey Burke as something entirely new is 
interesting too, as it could even hint to a spinoff of a character 
they have already shown. It would not be an easy task; 
however, as they have to find a character who has a loose end 
to tie up. Agents of Shield will be dealing with Time Travel in 
season 7 so that scenario could come into play too.
Whatever the series will be, one thing is for sure that Marvel 
fans will welcome it wholeheartedly.
