The car being the car it is and flying how it does really harkens back to the comics where SHEILD had flying cars which looked like 50s/60s sports cars and were able to fly in the way Lola did (with the wheels turning down and providing lift via fans/jets whatever). Later models had hologram projectors that could make them look like other vehicles, even something as large as a UPS truck. It doesn't really need to tie back into Howard Stark's flying car prototype in Captain America but it probably is meant to and I liked it either way.EnterpriseSovereign wrote:I wasn't sure about the obvious use of Stark Tech with the car at the very end, seemed like a pointless gimmick than anything else. Though given Stark was somehow able to "fix" Pepper when she'd been injected with Extremis it's a safe bet he'll have something to do with this guy.
Pretty hard to miss the namedropping of most of the characters from the Avengers, though I have to wonder how (or if) the series is going to tie in with Thor the Dark World seeing as it's just a month away.
I kind of liked the "Journey Into Mystery" bit and the riff on Spider-man's "great power..." motto.

In the Agent Carter short on the Iron Man 3 Blu-Ray they have Howard Stark running S.H.E.I.L.D.. I wonder how that is going to work into the show and/or the movies. I'm also curious if any other known agents will be making appearances. Stillwell seems like one of the more likely characters.
