The Rising Tide Wants to Know What “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Are Hiding Caleb Hamilton, May 12, 2013May 12, 2013 Last week, a strange, very brief viral video teasing Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. made the rounds on the internet, showing footage of a Hulk-like creature wreaking havoc on a city street.

So exactly what is The Rising Tide and what do they have to do with S.H.I.E.L.D.? Find out after the jump!This weekend, ABC picked up Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and released a short teaser via Vine (which you can see below) ahead of a full spot that aired during the season finale of Once Upon A Time tonight.

One of the videos has been pulled, presumably by S.H.I.E.L.D. and replaced with a blank space.You can help uncover the truth by sharing their blog postings in your favorite social networks.
