The television show Agents of SHIELD is accused by fans of Mass Effect 3 of wholly lifting one of the most impressive images of an episode directly from one of the pieces of concept art that BioWare has created.

On the official forums, a user explains that he was struck by the similarities and decided to create a comparison image to see just how close the images actually were.

He explains, “The lines crossing the landing pad thing are the same, as well as the peg-vent thing on top which has been duplicated to the position of the edited out tower.”

Agents of SHIELD is based on the Marvel comic book cannon and is currently getting solid ratings, especially because of its connection to the Avengers movie.

The Mass Effect trilogy starring Commander Shepard is not considered complete at BioWare, but the company has confirmed that it plans to use the same universe in the coming years for a new type of experience.
