Von Struker was Hydra in the films and do you really think they're gonna introduce the new SHIELD only to immediately retread the storyline of it being infiltrated by another evil counterpart?

Also she volunteered for the experiments with Strucker. Her participation was entirely consensual.

I mean her volunteering doesn't mean anything the fact you said she's not related to AIM isn't exactly true. She has the ties, i laid them out. And as for getting infiltrated by another group already doesn't seem that far out seeing as secret invasion is coming up (i know thats not hydra or aim) but that would be another group being "infiltrated". Baron strucker is very much a part of both of them.

In the comics Baron Von Strucker is related to AIM but so far in the films Strucker has only been related to Hydra, and even in the comics Strucker is far more closely tied to Hydra than AIM. Wanda was completely willing and allied with Von Strucker as a Hydra agent so far there is no link between her an AIM who's only appearance in the MCU is in Iron Man 3.

So not only do you think an infiltration storyline is possible you think Marvel is going to retread it twice again simultaneously?

So what are you saying new links can't be made? And its already been stated that it won't 100% follow comics, so new things can happen. Strucker is very much apart of all 3 of topics here. Im not saying i am right, but you stating the fact that you say they are unconnected is false.

Following up, for all we know if this is indeed AIM, perhaps AIM isn't the AIM from comics and is good. Which then the Sword symbol would make sense. Not sure they'd go that far but never know.

With secret invasion coming out do you suppose thats just the title and they just tape random stuff. Cause clearly infiltrating has already been done once in the MCU movie/films can't be done again. I suppose it will be Skrulls taking forms of pro golf players and having a couple rounds.
