The secret government agency from the Marvel Universe, S.H.I.E.L.D., set up shop to begin recruiting agents. Today at WonderCon, S.H.I.E.L.D. showed up to recruit more potential agents. Read on to find out more!Some WonderCon attendees staying in hotels around the convention woke up with notes slipped under their doors from S.H.I.E.L.D. director, Nick Fury (played by Samuel L. Jackson).SuperHeroHype posted the video which appears on channel 72 on the hotel’s closed-circuit TV. S.H.I.E.L.D. later had a booth set up outside for people to sign up at their website, as well as get a picture ID. Alex Billington of FirstShowing.net tweeted a photo of his new S.H.I.E.L.D.
