How Close Is Agents of SHIELD’s Hive To The Source?

Turns out that Grant Ward’s return from the grave was only his first transformation. Hiding behind the face of Ward actor, Brett Dalton, in the latest episode of Agents of SHIELD, Hive removed his veil to show his true form to Hydra’s Inner circle. Unfortunately, the audience is not a part of the inner circle and we only got a glimpse of his glorious lovecraftian locks.

A lot of comics fan will be happy to note the similarity between the villain’s original appearance, despite their largely different origins. His face remains to be seen so only time will tell how close he will resemble the original character.

What do you think of Hive’s portrayal in Agents of SHIELD?
