Given the age of {{Creator/Robert Redford}}, Pierce would likely be a young child during the time of this series. He may make a cameo appearance, or they could go deeper into his backstory, showing his early ties to SHIELD [[spoiler: and/or HYDRA]].

He certainly has the whole evil psychologist/mundane mind control schtick that Faustus has. In addition, [[Series/AgentsOfSHIELD Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]] has made reference to the "Faustus Method" of brainwashing, indicating that the not-so-good doctor exists in this universe.
* The actor who plays Ivchenko, Ralph Brown, retweeted a ComicBook.com article that makes this theory, which strongly suggests that this is indeed the case.

Both are obviously female, even if [[SamusIsAGirl the episode tried to hide it]], both are blonde, and both are quite tall with long legs. Why else would Dottie be [[ChekhovsGunman randomly and explicitly introduced]] to Peggy during the episode? It wouldn't be the first time a [[Comicbook/BlackWidow Marvel female assassin is a ballerina (or has a cover story as such)]]. She could even be another female operative trained by the Black Widow program. It might be a stretch, but her method of dispatching the Aryan would-be assassin towards the end of The Blitzkrieg Button seems very reminiscent of takedowns we've seen Natasha Romanoff perform.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


Maybe not even until the very end of S2, or the beginning of S3 as a mythology hook. Or even turn out to have gone inactive because they ran afoul of Dottie/Leviathan, before the Stark robbery? (Dottie being targeted by the LotLK would certainly be a deliciously UpToEleven example of TheDogBitesBack.

* [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]] could be shown as a darker counterpart to Thor. He will have SuperStrength, flight, complete control of water and the ability to summon Atlantean craft/warriors as well as giant sea Kaiju. However, he will be prone to violent mood swings from oxygen imbalances, resulting in attacks on humanity and will be willing to anything to protect Atlantis, no matter how many people die or how much destruction is caused. His origins could be explained in the MCU by having the Atlanteans as experimental underwater Inhumans or experiments who broke free and headed into the ocean.

He will be capable of flight, complete control of fire (perhaps being able to control the temperature like in the classic comics, hide in flames like his Golden Age days and even modify the radioactivity of his flame like in All-New Invaders), the ability to disable or completely control enemy machinery and NighInvulnerability, being an android and all.

* Falsworth returns as Union Jack, now with a proper costume and armed with his Sten Gun and his Webley MK VI, as well as a Fairbairn-Sykes knife. Unlike the others, he's a BadassNormal with plenty of experience from the war. He might have become the British Cap in honor of Steve. His relationship with Roger and the fact that the Union Jack identity was first donned by his father in WW1 could make interesting plot points. As well as that, his absence from the Howling Commandos could be that he'd already become Union Jack and Pinkerton was recruited to take his place.

If the Black Widows were malnourished as children, they would either die or, if they did survive, would be decidedly shorter than their growth potential. But the Black Widow seen in this show [[StatuesqueStunner is not a short woman.]] But their Leviathan handlers aren't the type of villain to just give the girls enough food: when one is in a foreign country, or on the run, one may be forced to steal to get by, or to complete one's mission, and that's even without taking into account Leviathan wanting to deliberately weed out weaker members of the Black Widow class and thus leave only the best in every way alive. They could have learned from something that [[TruthInTelevision was practiced in]] [[TheSpartanWay Ancient Sparta]]: young trainees were deliberately given much less food than they would need to survive, especially with the rest of the TrainingFromHell they were going through at the time, and were expected to steal the rest of their food without being caught. If they were caught, they were punished not for the theft but for failing to evade capture. Given that the Black Widow program is designed to make ChildSoldiers into the most {{Badass}} adult {{Action Girl}}s in the setting, and have been shown to not mind weaker recruits dying because of their training, it would fit their needs too. Strong, sneaky girls steal food and survive. Weaker, less sneaky girls fail to steal food, and die of starvation, or become weaker and can't keep up and are killed in training.
