It’s not an opinion, it’s a fact. She’s kind of a big deal. Lets celebrate some commanding Captain Carter Cosplays!

Peggy Carter. Founder of S.H.I.E.L.D. World War II operative. General baddass. There is no denying that Captain Carter is a legendary hero of the Marvel Universe who steals the spotlight in every story she is tied to. We live in the era of strong, independent female heroes, and Peggy Carter is the best of the best. With the recent release of ‘What If…?’ from Marvel, we’re expecting an amazing influx of new Captain Carter Cosplays.

“Margaret Carter was known to most as the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D.. But I just know her as Aunt Peggy. She had a photograph in her office: Aunt Peggy standing next to JFK. As a kid that was pretty cool. But it was a lot to live up to, which is why I never told anyone we were related. I asked her once how she managed to master diplomacy and espionage at a time when no one wanted to see a woman succeed at either. And she said “Compromise where you can. Where you can’t, don’t. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye, and say ‘No, you move’.”” -Sharon Carter

“Now, I go to work.”

 

Just to be clear, this is pressed into your brachial artery, it may be dull but I’m determined. Keep smiling. Once you start to bleed, you’ll lose consciousness in fifteen seconds, you’ll die in ninety unless someone comes to your aid. Now given your recent behavior, how likely do you think that is to happen? To prevent this not entirely unfortunate event from occurring, I suggest you find another place to eat. Do we understand each other?”

“What would Cap say if I left his best girl behind?”
“He’d say “Do as Peggy says.”

 

I think it’s time I put my days on the front lines behind me. Someone needs to mind the wheel back in the States. And I suppose someone needs to convince the SSR of Howard’s innocence, wanker or not. I’ll miss you.”

 

“You have one chip to trade on, fear, and fear is the one tool that little girls who grow up handcuffed to their beds learn. I however am not afraid of you.”

“The necklace is equipped with a tracking device so that I can monitor your location at all times. And if you attempt to move the beacon or break even one link in the chain, you will be injected with a neurotoxin which will kill you in 35 excruciatingly painful seconds.”

I don’t need a congressional honor. I don’t need Agent Thompson’s approval or the president’s. I know my value. Anyone else’s opinion doesn’t really matter.”

“I conducted my own investigation because no one listens to me. I got away with it because no one looks at me. Because, unless I have your reports, your coffee, or your lunch, I’m invisible.”

 

“I think you’re a man out for his own gain no matter who you’re charging. You are constantly finding holes to slither your way into in the hope of finding loose change, only to cry when you’re bitten by another snake. You’re a man who says “I love you” whilst looking over a woman’s shoulder into the mirror. Steve Rogers dedicated his mind, his body, his life to the SSR and to this country, not to your bank account. I made the same pledge, but I’m not as good as Steve was. I forgot my pledge running around for you like a corporate spy. So thank you, Howard, for reminding me who Steve was and what I aspire to be. For all I know, you did steal your inventions.”

“You know how busy the office keeps me.”

“Faster, ladies! Come on! My grandmother has more life in her, God rest her soul. Move it!

 

Gentlemen, I’m Agent Carter. I supervise all operations of this division.”

“Wait! Go get him. I’m not kissing you.”

“The world has changed, and none of us can go back. All we can do is our best, and sometimes, the best that we can do, is to start over.”

“The world has changed, and none of us can go back. All we can do is our best, and sometimes, the best that we can do, is to start over.”

“Crikey O’Reilly!”

 

“Are you ready for our dance?”

“I’d been wallowing in it since the war, wondering why no one would give Agent Peggy Carter a shot.”

“Darling, you have no idea.”

 

Oh, And one more thing… tip generously.”

 

“Sometimes you won’t know what you’re working with until you’re in the moment… so you have to improvise.”
