This return was teased in a recent comic, which also hinted at a new partnership with a superhero team other than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/the-avengers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Avengers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/shh_spoiler_alert_b9187e_fe54f2.webp\" alt=\"Marvel\u2019s SHIELD Is Back With New Partner That\u2019s Not Avengers\" class=\"wp-image-641853\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>The return of SHIELD was first announced in a Marvel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marvel.com\/articles\/comics\/captain-america-6-cover-shield-returns-road-to-armageddon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">press release<\/a> from November 2025. The publisher confirmed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/nick-fury\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nick Fury<\/a> would establish a new incarnation of the organization within the pages of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/captain-america\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Captain America<\/a>. They further announced this would start a storyline that culminates in the 2026 summer crossover event <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/armageddon\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Armageddon<\/a>. However, a comic released ahead of January\u2019s Captain America #6 reveals how the new SHIELD may differ from the original.<\/p>\n<p>Who is the new SHIELD trying to partner with?<\/p>\n<p>The new SHIELD is teased in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/fantastic-four\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fantastic Four #6<\/a>, by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/ryan-north\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ryan North<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/humberto-ramos\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Humberto Ramos<\/a>. After averting an alien invasion, the team is approached by former SHIELD director <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/maria-hill\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Maria Hill<\/a>. She catches up with them regarding the events of One World Under Doom, where she fought alongside the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/x-men\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">X-Men<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"811\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Maria-Hill-approaches-Fantastic-Four-about-new-SHIELD.jpg\" alt=\"Maria Hill approaches Fantastic Four about new SHIELD\" class=\"wp-image-641863\"  \/>(Image Source: Marvel \/ Humberto Ramos)<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted the Earth-616 Maria Hill is a vastly different character than her MCU variant. Her relationship with the superhero community is largely hostile, due to her pragmatic approach to peacekeeping. Indeed, Hill had been trying to reform SHIELD to spy on potentially dangerous superhumans and plot countermeasures to neutralize them. <\/p>\n<p>However, recent events convinced Hill that it would be better for SHIELD to work with established superheroes. To that end, she wants to reorganize it as a group closer to the Fantastic Four\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/future-foundation\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Future Foundation<\/a> than an intelligence agency. They will still have the same broad goal of building a better world. However, Hill wants the new organization to have a new focus and a direct partnership with the Fantastic Four.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"358\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Maria-Hill-of-SHIELD-in-Fantastic-Four-6.jpg\" alt=\"Maria Hill of SHIELD in Fantastic Four #6\" class=\"wp-image-641864\"  \/>(Image Source: Marvel \/ Humberto Ramos)<\/p>\n<p>The team is still undecided by the end of Fantastic Four #6.

Indeed, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/tag\/sue-storm\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sue Storm<\/a> served as a full SHIELD agent on several occasions. On the other hand, they have little reason to truly trust Maria Hill.
