Plus, the Howling Commandos!
But tonight, they became full characters and thats not nearly all that happened on this weeksAgent Carter.
Now, allow me to wear my fanboy hat for a moment…
But there they were, fighting the good fight in Russia with Caps best girl.
This stuff just never gets old.
No, Peggy Carter helped Thompson find his courage.
Furthermore, Thompson revealed some dark secrets from his past to our heroine.
Again, Peggy never judged, she just listened.
Speaking of soldiers, can I gush about the Howling Commandos a bit more?
When Dugan busted through the wall to save Peggy and her squad, screaming his signature waa-hooo!
lets just say it was one of the most profound nerd chubbies I had in years.
This week, we witnessed the real Peggy Carter in action.
On Peggy returns home, there will be some tough times ahead.
Dot busted into Peggys pad and went through Peggys private things, finding pictures of the stolen Stark tech.

Retro Marvel Moments
A bit of a breakdown on the featured Howling Commandos:
Junior Juniper first appeared inSgt.
Fury and the Howling Commandosvol.
A nice tribute to a seminal Silver Age Marvel moment.
Happy Sam Sawyer also first appeared inSgt.
Fury and the Howling Commandos#1 (1963).
In the original comics, Sawyer gave Nick Fury and the Howlers their marching orders.
InAgent Carter, Sawyer was an African American soldier who did not seem to be a commanding officer.
Pinky Pinkerton was a Howling Commando mainstay and first appeared inSgt.
Fury and his Howling Commandosvol.
1 #8 (1964).
He was a flamboyant character who always sported his signature beret and pompom.
Im sure the Red Room will be brought up in Natashas future film appearances.
