After learning that the episode, "The Good Samaritan," would be an origin story for Robbie Reyes, it was assumed that Robbie Reyes would be telling a story identical to the comics, which depicted Robbie allowing the spirit of serial killer Eli Morrow to possess his body and become the Ghost Rider. However, that's not how it played out on #AgentsOfSHIELD.

The One Problem With DCTV's "Heroes Versus Aliens" - And Where We Go From Here
"We gotta do this more often." With those words — and with a new inter-dimensional tool given to Supergirl — DCTV set up a future of infinite possibilities.
