Operation: S.I.N. - Agent Carter by Kathryn Immonen, Stan Lee
3.0
Well that was messy. And confusing. And...really, really odd. I adore Agent Carter but I could have really done without reading that if I'm honest. I wanted ass kicking. Espionage. Howling Commandos. Quips. I got aliens and a werebear. I mean. COME ON. Do you honestly think that's what we all signed up for Marvel? You've got Hayley freaking Atwell on the cover! Putting her on there is a shameless act of miss selling.
I probably wouldn't be quite so annoyed, except denofgeek.com specifically recommended it for fans of the show, and I quote, this is the first comic that reflects the version of the character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the Agent Carter TV series. Um, no, not really. I mean she's a blonde Anerican for starters!
It genuinely doesn't deserve three stars but I can't bring myself to give it any less. One star for the story, one star for the artwork (that washed out not-quite-sepia colour palette really didn't do it for me), and one star because I ❤️ Peggy.
