“What exactly she will be an ‘Agent’ of is left unsaid, given that SHIELD is very gone at this point and SWORD is, presumably, a bit busy after the whole New Jersey deal.”

And thus begins the Gawker “intelligentsia” assault on the new Ghostbusters movie in the name of righteousness over Ghostbusters 2016 being terrible. It makes sense that the opening salvo would be over something really substantive like a box of cereal.
