I have no idea what I just read.
This is such a weird mishmash of random stuff with strange dialogue and uncompelling art that I'm not even sure there was a plot except in barest sense of the word.
There was literally nothing interesting about this at all. I'm assuming it ties into a larger story but I have zero idea what that story might be. This was the most pointless thing I've read in years.

It was weird seeing a blond Peggy, since I'm so used to Hayley Atwell's performance, but Peggy's characterization was strikingly similar to the show, so props to both teams for the contnuity.
I really appreciated how Peggy was always looking out for others - particularly other women. One of the most beautiful moments in the comic was when Peggy made a comment about how she doesn't "have a heart" when talking to a space alien who literally ripped out her mechanical heart to give to her ex-lover, and she says "neither do I" but it's such a genuine moment between two women who are clearly very compassionate and have made great sacrifices to get where they are today, so I thought that was very well done.
The art style was gorgeous, and it was nice seeing Howard again, even if his head shape is nothing like Dominic Cooper's.
Also the comic was split into 2 sections - one that was Peggy and Howard's alien investigation in Russia, and then a shorter one at the end which was like Peggy recounting her relationship with Captain America, and even though the second one was nothing like The First Avenger, it still made me sad to read :( <3

I love Peggy Carter, but this whole storyline was very mediocre.

This was a lot of fun!! I don't think I really... understood the plot? But I don't care because it gave Peggy an excuse to punch a lot of stuff and sass Howard Stark, and also there was a werebear, and also aliens. I'm a simple creature.

Howard Stark and Agent Peggy Carter, teaming up to uncover some alien tech/energy source. A match made, I love those two characters separately and together they are honestly really funny with their back and forth banter. Beautiful artwork and colouring right through, however I did not like the Captain Amercia comic at the back. Despite my potential bias since I'm not the biggest fan of Captain America, there was just no real storyline to it, would have been better without it.

Usually I don't read the Marvel comics as much as I'd like to, but Peggy is my favorite Marvel character & this seemed interesting to read.
Different obviously from the MCU Peggy Carter, but still I enjoyed it very much!
I didn't let my love for MCU Peggy + Hayley's portrayal of her cloud my judgement of this story.
Like I said different but still liked it very much!

There are times when aliens are necessary. This is not one of those times.

I understand why they're using Hayley Atwell's Peggy on the cover, but it must be confusing to fans of the MCU who pick this up expecting MCU Peggy and getting 616 Peggy art. Though that doesn't matter in the long run, because ANY Peggy Carter is badass.
The war is over, but Peggy still sleeps with combat boots by her bedside. Why?
Because if someone infiltrates your home, you're not going to take care of business in your bare feet.
Much like Agent Carter, Operation S.I.N. has Howard Stark drawing Peggy back into action, where she enjoys being. What follows is a romp around the world, a team made up of interesting characters, HYDRA, alien artifacts and a hell of a great showcase for the sheer whirlwind of awesome that is Peggy Carter.
If you want a quick, fun read, this is for you. If you want more Peggy Carter, this is for you.
And, joy of joys, that rarity in today's world of crossover events: you can read this one without needing to know anything about Original Sin.
