―Official story description[5]
Episodes:
Each episode is designed to be stand-alone but follow in order to keep with the story, with a cold opening and a focus on a character or set of characters. During the thick of an episode, the screen format will switch from widescreen aspect ratio to a letterboxed 2.35:1 compromise ratio, this, like many recent television shows, is produced to give the impression of a cinematic film. After the scene in question is over, the picture will revert back to widescreen.
The first season consists of 26 episodes.[6] To accompany the episodes, Marvel Comics is producing a monthly tie-in comic starting in October of 2013, as well as a creator commentary into the previous day's episode with an exclusive interview with Supervising Producer Cort Lane hosted on the Marvel website as of the episode "Ghost of a Chance." In the United States, the first two episodes of the series were shown together in a one-hour premiere event.
