Peggy Carter Series

Looks like they are going to come out with a short series starring Peggy Carter to fill out more of the Marvel Universe outside of the movies.

Marvel's Agent Carter, starring Captain America's Hayley Atwell, follows the story of Peggy Carter. It's 1946, and peace has dealt Peggy Carter a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad. Working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), Peggy must balance doing administrative work and going on secret missions for Howard Stark all while trying to navigate life as a single woman in America, in the wake of losing the love of her life - Steve Rogers.

I hope this does well and helps with disproving the "nobody's interested in action films starring women" belief. In other words, i really really hope there's very little focus on the "single woman" aspect. I don't need to see 13 episodes of Peggy Carter moaning about not having a man.
