In the last season of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC, not only did we learn that Skye was actually Daisy Johnson, but we also saw her developing the superpowers associated with Quake from the comic book that serves as its source material. Now fans can have a proper look at the superhero costume that Chloe Bennet will be rocking as the leader of the Secret Warriors when Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to our screens thanks to The Los Angeles Times.
The outfit definitely takes some influence from Quake’s look in the Marvel comics, but they’ve obviously put their own spin on it as well. You’ll notice she’s also sporting some snazzy new gauntlets to help her control her unstable earth-shattering Inhuman abilities.
Here’s what costume designer Ann Foley had to say about it during an interview with the LA Times.[x_blockquote type=”left”]“It’s about strength. She feels very empowered in it. That’s what was important to me, that she felt empowered to me. I wanted to stay true to some of the designs I saw in the comics. In the style lines, I wanted to pay a little bit of a tribute to her tactical ability from last season, but we also incorporated the Quake symbol into her gauntlets and on the back of her suit.”[/x_blockquote]

Daisy is definitely going to need all the extra support her suit provides, as she and the others will be taking on a shadowy new organization headed up by Rosalind Price (Constance Zimmer), and the monstrous Inhuman known as Lash (Matthew Willig), when Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to ABC on September 29.
