Have You Seen the New Agent Carter Previews?
In case there wasn’t enough anticipation about Agent Carter, Marvel has just released two new trailers that have me asking in my most desperate voice, “Is it January yet?” Every little clip reaffirms that Agent Carter will be unapologetically kick ass. I don’t know about you guys, but I’m all about a woman who knows how to get the job done and be fabulous at the same time. Fans of the Marvel U will recognize Peggy Carter as Steve Rogers’ love interest from Captain America: The First Avenger, and comic fans will remember her as a pivotal character. If you haven’t seen the trailers yet, they’re here for your viewing pleasure:
Now that you’ve feasted your eyes, let’s talk about the finer points of what you’ve just seen. Peggy has always been a take-no-prisoners kind of gal and it looks like she’s going to bring her no-nonsense attitude to her new show. Marvel is playing up the tough girl angle by juxtaposing her fabulous fashion sense and perfect manicure with her snark and her vicious combat skills. To top it off, fans of Agent Phil Coulson will notice an awesome little nod to The Avengers; remember when Phil paid a visit to Stark Tower to recruit Tony? I won’t lie, I squee’d when Peggy said her first name was “Agent”.
If you’re counting down the days, there isn’t long to go until Agent Carter joins the current smorgasbord of comic-based shows. Look it on January 6th.
