Overview[]
The world turns. World War II has ended. The Red Skull is dead. Hydra has been defeated. And SSR Agent Peggy Carter finds herself struggling to find her way in this brave new world. A world without her hero. A world without Captain America.
A world that she is marginalized and reduced to mere secretarial duties. A world where she is contemptuously dismissed as being "Cap's Girlfriend".
But the world is still a dangerous place. And evil is still out there.
And so is Agent Carter.
Agent Carter was a short-lived American produced action sci-fi espionage TV series starring Hayley Atwell and is considered part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This spin-off series was inspired by the aforementioned star's popular performance in Captain America: The First Avenger and Marvel One-Shot: Agent Carter.
