Agents Of SHIELD: The Mimic
After dying in a warehouse accident, an ordinary man wakes up in the body of Jake Mordered—a street kid living in the Marvel Cinematic Universe just months before the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. he knows HYDRA is rotting the organization from the inside, he knows Grant Ward is a traitor, and he knows exactly how his new teammates are destined to suffer.
But Jake isn't just an observer; he is an Inhuman with a powerful, dormant gene that grants him a trinity of abilities:
Detection: He can sense the genetic signatures of Inhumans and aliens nearby, acting as a living radar.
Replication: Through prolonged physical contact, he can slowly copy the powers of others, absorbing their potential into himself.
Adaptation: His physiology constantly evolves to handle these new abilities, granting him accelerated healing and enhanced reflexes.
Armed with these powers and a cheat sheet to the apocalypse, Jake infiltrates Phil Coulson’s team.
