Agent Carter is back in an all-new adventure that reveals her secret history with S.H.I.E.L.D.! When Dum Dum Dugan attempts to recruit her to S.H.I.E.L.D., will Peggy join up or go her own way? Operation S.I.N.'s crackerjack team of Kathryn Immonen and Rich Ellis return to the world of Peggy Carter!
I'm loving this growth in 616 Peggy Carter stories thanks to the MCU and Agent Carter. Much like Operation: S.I.N.: Agent Carter, any fans looking for Hayley Atwell's Peggy are going to be confused, since this is 616 Peggy's story.
Here, Peggy is joined by Lady Sif for...actually, I'm not 100% sure of the reasoning for this story existing. Yes, it's fun, and yes, I ate it all up, but it feels like most of this has been done already. But who cares? I sure as shit don't!! Give me all the Peggy Carter stories you want to throw at me, Marvel. I'LL READ THEM ALL.
PS. Marvel, can we have a series that is just Peggy Carter teams up with other awesome Marvel ladies? Thank you. PPS. PEGGY WEARS PEARLS WITH HER BDU. I fucking love her.
Peggy Carter and Lady Sif have an adventure onboard a SHIELD hellicarrier.
Agent Carter: SHIELD 50th Anniversary didn't have much substance to it. Even going into depth would be spoiling the only interesting parts of this. The premise is an emergency happens onboard a SHIELD hellicarrier and Lady Sif and Peggy Carter work their hardest to figure out what's happening. Not too interesting.
As a person who only has knowledge of the MCU this was a little confusing. Still it read super fast and was quite enjoyable. I love Peggy Carter and anything to do with her.
Compared to the TV show, this is an older and different Peggy. I suppose this is the comic version. Still I thoroughly enjoyed this short comic. The comic depicts a scenario which Peggy has to deal with all the time: being underestimated and consequently tested constantly simply because you are a woman. She proves them all wrong of course & I really enjoyed the end scene. :)
This was action packed and totally fun. Both of these ladies are some of my favorite in the comic world. It was hard to reconcile Carter with blonde hair since I was introduced to her through MCCU, but she's totally awesome anyway. I wish there was more with her.
Quick verdict: Agent Carter: S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th Anniversary #1 is a smart, sneaky little book that's better than its marketing. What worked: a dry sense of humor and a plot that tightens in all the right places. What didn't: the final chapter hands out neat little endings like party favors. Recommend for readers who like clever and a little cynical, skip for anybody who hates a tidy wrap-up.
i really enjoyed this and i love that peggy's character is getting explored more and more. however, it left me wanting more. hopefully, we could have a peggy series one day (even more so now agent carter has been cancelled)
It's 1966 and Dum Dum requires Peggy's help in analyzing a potential new SHIELD recruit, Lady Sif, but things don't go smoothly. After being so meh over Original SIN, I was surprised by how much I liked this. Great kick ass ladies, great characterizations, great ending. It's funny how Peggy hasn't aged or changed style since the 40s and 50s, but whatever. Yay ladies. Yay.
I love Peggy Carter. I love everything Peggy Carter. I have t-shirts with her face on them. I have posters. I have watched Agent Carter numerous times. Peggy Carter is my life hero. I will consume any sort of media that has her in it. And a partner up with Lady Sif? God bless Marvel. I would have liked to see Peggy deck Nick Fury though. He totally earned it.
And she did it all in pearls! What a great issues! The guys were idiots and the ladies were flawless! I WANT MORE OF THIS! I WANT MORE ADVENTURES OF PEGGY AND SIF!
