Thankfully thee release of Thor: The Dark World and especially Captain America: The Winter Soldier bolstered the season’s second-half, giving it new life to end the show’s First Season on a string of strong episodes.

Throw in an old S.H.I.E.L.D. tricked-out cargo jet, and the team is ready for action.
