Blah blah blah, Marvel. I'm so outraged.

Kabooooom - Matt Morrison
Mar 09, 2022Captain Carter is here and it's about time! Put simply, this is an engaging series and it is one I plan to read on a regular basis in the future. More than a simple distaff take on a classic formula, this is an enjoyable, adventurous title centered around a strong, smart hero that everyone can enjoy. Read Full Review

Mar 12, 2022While getting the bus home. Hydra launches an attack, which pretty much forces Peggy into a position where she is likely to once again represent her country. Read Full Review

Mar 07, 2022When the one battle scene comes, its drawn in an in-your-face manner. In one panel, we see the POV of one of her opponents, as Peggy hurls her shield at him, and it looks like its nearly popping out of the panel like a 3-D film. Great work! Read Full Review

But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Mar 07, 2022Captain Carter #1 is a brilliant start. For McKelvies first foray into writing, the script is excellent and full of both drama and emotion. The writer is establishing a voice already and it is fantastic to see. Learning more about a character we have only spent a brief period of time with is exciting as it shows that the potential of Captain Carter is thriving. With gorgeous art accompanying the writing this comic is a pleasure to read. Read Full Review

Weird Science Marvel Comics - mrgabehernandez
Mar 07, 2022Captain Carter #1 is a direct sequel to the "What If"?" character of the same name in a slightly different timeline. The character work to help readers get to know Peggy in a modern world is stellar, the art is equally stellar, and this was an enjoyable comic overall. Read Full Review

Mar 16, 2022A good start to a fun, well-paced comic starring a charming, deserving lead with old fashioned comic ass-kickery. Worth the coin. Read Full Review

Mar 07, 2022This book is an explosive start to the series that's sure to be filled with action and intrigue. The foundation is laid here, but more than that, it entertains on every level. This is a series that you shouldn't be afraid to take a chance on! Read Full Review

Geek'd Out - Nico Sprezzatura
Mar 09, 2022Marika Crestas art helps convey the lightness of this series, and she does a good job of giving Peggy a physically imposing presence equally measured by her feminine strength. With a character like her, you really need to sell them on the page as a person who inspires awe in others, and she always sticks out in any scene shes in. And although McKelvie takes a rare role as the sole writer here, his art still makes its way to the fantastic cover of this issue. The graphic design of Captain Carter is top-notch, which is always true of a title with McKelvies touch on it. Read Full Review

AIPT - David Brooke
Mar 07, 2022Captain Carter #1 feels like a stable, but safe start to the new series. Characterization is on point and you'll be right there with Peggy every step of the way, but it also doesn't feel new enough, nor does it make a strong enough case to matter just yet. As it reaches its cliffhanger you'll be on the fence as the second issue will likely open up its superhero themes. Read Full Review

GWW - Brian Villar
Mar 08, 2022There is a lot of potential with Captain Carter, as she is a unique character in an unexplored setting. If McKelvie and Cresta can work out and start delivering a consistent product, I do not see this series going for much longer. Read Full Review

This is an exciting book with a great voice and an excellent way of getting us into the action while still taking a leisurely pace introducing us to the characters. Can't wait to read more!

Good start, missing McKelvie on art but Cresta does a nice job. Intriguing multiversal story. Not sure the hate thrown down on a title just starting but hey it's fandom at its best. Solid work, looking forward next issue.

A fun little romp! McKelvie's name on the cover maybe leads one to expect more from the art than Cresta can deliver, but this is a fun "What If?"-style setup with good action and a likeable main character. I'm interested to see where it's going

It's a good setup for a Captain Carter story, but goodness, it's slow. Aside from the pace (and a slight over-serving of exposition), there's little wrong with the script. The art could be more distinctive, but it's definitely polished to a high degree. What wins me over to calling this a good comic is the charm radiating from Peggy's voice, particularly her narration. Here's hoping they stomp a little harder on the gas pedal in future issues!

This wasn't a bad start, but it doesn't really justify its existence outside of a possible sales avenue. It's competently written, and I could see it becoming more enjoyable. I think the art is a bit lackluster, though, unfortunately.

marvel continues to force a character who needs to take things from other characters to maintain relevance. they should forget about peggy carter for good, and focus on their other female characters, who are a thousand times better.
