Summary

During World War II, Steve Rogers is initially chosen to be the world’s first super-soldier. Before he can receive the super-soldier serum, Hydra spy Kruger intervenes and shoots Rogers and Chester Phillips. Peggy Carter shoots Kruger and volunteers to receive the serum herself. She is successfully enhanced, but John Flynn bans her from combat. Secretly receiving equipment from Howard Stark, Carter steals the Tesseract from Hydra, and is then promoted to a combat role as Captain Carter. Stark uses the Tesseract to create a weaponized suit of armor for Rogers to pilot, as the “Hydra Stomper”. Carter and Rogers fight many battles during the war, including a rescue of captured Bucky Barnes and Dum Dum Dugan from Hydra. A suited Rogers is captured while attacking a booby-trapped Hydra train, and presumed dead by his allies. Carter and her allies infiltrate a Hydra base where they find Rogers. In the base, the Red Skull uses the Tesseract to open a portal and unleash an inter-dimensional tentacled creature, which kills him. Carter sacrifices herself to force the creature back to its dimension. Almost 70 years later, the portal is reopened. Carter emerges from it and meets Nick Fury and Clint Barton.
