    I’m curious about Wolverine’s role there.. (but, he looks so cute) and who’s the other female with the claws?
    That's Blink and that is the X-Babies version of Wolverine called Wolvie.

    @OJSP - The Exiles will be a team made up of heroes from alternate universes.  I don't know why she has Wolverine-style claws in the picture, but the purple woman is Blink (specifically, the Age of Apocalypse version).  I don't know if she's the leader, but she's the centerpiece of the team due to her ability to teleport to different universes and timestreams and stuff.  The cute Wolverine is from the X-Babies universe (who knew?).  If you want to know more, here's an EW article introducing the title: http://ew.com/books/2018/01/19/breaking-down-marvels-exiles/

    I used to love Exiles back in the day and am a big Peggy fan.  I will have to check it out.

    She looks good!! I would love to see a Peggy Carter movie where a portal opens and she appears as Captain America from another world. Hayley Atwell is amazing.

    Hopefully it will explain what Peggy had against Wasp in her Clash of the Titans matchup.

    I'm still hoping she gets her own series. I suppose they shot themselves in the foot by having alternate universe Captain America be Samantha Wilson.

    Seems that way. We've already had a lego version of Peggy Carter show up. I need to play that game to see if she's anything more than an unlockable character though...

    The art looks great.  And bonus points for feeling like an homage to the Grey Suit Black Widow cover by Jim Lee.
    Holy wow! Nice catch! That is pretty cool.

    And Marvel has never been known to have more than one alternate universe version of a character... *cough, cough* Spider-Man *cough*  :p;)

    I don't purchase comics, but I made a wager with myself that if Marvel actually did something with the awesome Peggy Carter MPQ character I'd invest. 

    Looks like deep within the M-Mansion, they have detected that bet and called it. 

    My wallet is ready.

    [Seriously, the background story is amazing in its sublime simplicity and elegance. And she's badass.]

    She should at least get the new cover artwork in-game to celebrate.

    Also includes a link to the character history video that was made when Peggy was released.

    Yep, an alt where apparently Dark Reign never ended...
