Following the new photos from earlier today, the first clip has debuted from Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Season 2 premiere, "Shadows", airing Tuesday, September 23 at 9 PM ET on ABC.

The footage teases a number of intriguing developments, including the many "brothers" of Agent Koenig (Patton Oswalt) and Skye being tasked by Coulson (Clark Gregg) to investigate the "bulletproof assassin," which appears to be Carl "Crusher" Creel, a.k.a. The Absorbing Man (Brian Patrick Wade). Check out the first footage, which also features B.J. Britt as Triplett, before the new season kicks off one week from today.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns for a dynamic, action-packed second season, with newly appointed Director Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) - now the keeper of the secrets -- charged with rebuilding and restoring government and public trust in S.H.I.E.L.D. in the wake of the events of Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, where it was revealed evil Hydra agents had infiltrated the organization. Ever since the existence of super heroes and aliens became public knowledge after the Battle of New York, the world has been trying to come to grips with this new reality. Agent Phil Coulson, who had died at the hands of Loki during the battle, was resuscitated and brought back into action, assembling a small, highly select group of Agents from the worldwide law-enforcement organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division). S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mission: to protect those who cannot protect themselves from threats they cannot conceive.
