Technically, it is still Christmas Eve where I live, but it is Christmas where nearly everyone else lives, so I decided to create another Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.-themed crossword puzzle for everyone to work on while they are not gathering with families or doing anything else that they would do on this date in any other year.
We may all love the team, but we have to admit that they have left a lot of carnage in their wake. This puzzle's theme involves all the people who have killed or been killed over the years. To create this puzzle, I put about 45 words into an online crossword puzzle generator. Then I rearranged the results a bit and added 14 more words.
If you cannot access the attachment (e.g., you are not logged in), you can also download the puzzle as a Word document or as a GIF file. You can also solve a different arrangement of this puzzle online.
You can open the first spoiler tag below to solve this as a regular crossword puzzle. That is, I provide clues and it is for you to figure out what word(s) solve the clues. You can instead open the second spoiler tag to sort-of solve this as a fill-in crossword puzzle. That is, I provide the words and it is for you to figure out where each word goes. There is not a unique solution if you try to solve the puzzle this way (more detail under the tag). If you are stuck or if you want to confirm spelling, I suppose that you can open both. If you really want a challenge, you can ignore the grid entirely and just open the first spoiler tag to treat this like a trivia quiz.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the use of a first and/or last name in the clue will match the use in the answer. For example, if the clue contains just a first name, the answer will as well. For characters with only one name (or only one name given on the show), the name can either be a first name, a last name, or a full name. For example, if the answer is "Raina," the clue could include Jemma, Simmons, or Jemma Simmons. I explicitly noted when an answer has more than one word, including when it includes a first and last name. In nearly every case, I will name the episode when the killing took place.
