Completing the struggles and adventures where the first season stops that follows Peggy Carter, a young courageous agent, who upon losing her beloved during the Second World War, struggles, but once upon accepting to help a billionaire in clearing his name from the false accusation of treason, her life turns down. In this new season Peggy struggles against facing the threats of the atomic Age.
Agent Carter's two-hour premiere has set up yet another mission that has already proven to be even more exciting than last season's involving Howard Stark and Midnight Oil.
Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) is back for more with a second season, and it's clear that the trend of awesome, complex female heroes will keep on gaining momentum.
All the additions made to Agent Carter season 2 benefit the series, but in the end the show's success is still rooted in Hayley Atwell's central performance, which only gains more texture as she spends more time with the character.
Like last summer's Ant-Man, Agent Carter finds a way to make the smaller stakes of Peggy's noir sandbox as tense, credible, and addictively watchable as any other addition to the MCU.
