At Last, Peggy Carter is CAPTAIN AMERICA

Sometimes, the universe just wants us to be happy. And that’s why we’re so grateful for days like these, where the best characters get to do the coolest things they were, clearly, born to do—like be a superhero. Which is exactly what the new comic book solicitations for May have revealed: Agent Carter is Captain America—well, in at least one universe.

When Saladin Ahmen and Javier Rodriguez’s Exiles series lands in May, the team of alternate-reality iterations of our favorite superfolk (like Blink and Wolverine and Kamala Kahn and Valkyrie) will get to venture in and around the multiverse and end up, it seems, running into an alternate version of Peggy Carter, a.k.a. Agent Carter, kicking ass and taking names as Captain Carter. You may be familiar with the concept, as Peggy is currently kicking ass as Cap in the Marvel Puzzle Quest game.

According to the solicitation, though, she hasn’t rid her corner of the multiverse of all evil.

  • That’s her mission, anyway! The fan-favorite Captain America — Peggy Carter of the Marvel Puzzle Quest game — faces off against an apocalyptically armed Red Skull! And the Exiles are just in time to join the fight — ’cuz they’ve been kicked off their mission! There’s a new team of Watchers in town, and they’re cracking down on the Exiles’ interference in the timestream — even if it means the death of everything. Can the Exiles salvage Peggy Carter’s world, fix the Tallus and get back to saving reality before the Time-Eater tracks them down again?
