That doesn’t mean we don’t get a mention of the Sokovia Accords or some such here and there, and the show might have worked in a very sneaky reference to Black Panther, Marvel’s latest blockbuster, through a new character played by Dove Cameron.
Lately, the show has been less concerned with this, content to just tell its own crazy stories and live in its own corner of the MCU.
It used to be that in the old days, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. would go more out of its way to work in a reference to the events of whichever Marvel movie was currently in theaters.
