Edwin Abbott was a minor character from the third season of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Appearing in the episode "Spacetime", he owned a small grocery store in New York. One day, in the early hours of the morning, he saw a homeless man called Charles outside of his store and asked him to move along, stating that he didn't want to lose customers. He offered Charles some money for food, but Charles hesitated. Edwin placed the money in Charles' hand and, at that very moment, witnessed a vision of his impending death.
After seeing the terrible vision, Edwin called the police, asking for Daisy Johnson, whom he had seen in the vision. S.H.I.E.L.D. traced the 911 call and arrived on the scene where Daisy asked Edwin about what was going on and why she had been requested specifically. Edwin told Daisy that he was going to be killed by HYDRA and that she might be able to stop it. Seconds later, a HYDRA QuadCopter appeared in the sky above the street, raining down fire and destroying several police vehicles. As he had seen in the vision, Edwin was ultimately killed when the HYDRA gunship fired a stream of vulcan cannon rounds through him.
