* AgeLift: Red Skull, at least in the comics, is in his 30s during World War II. Here he is the same age as Huge Weaving when playing him (51), and was therefore old enough to fight in the First World War and also served in the Freikorps.

** Emily's girlfriend Edith Harker shares her name with daughter of Quincy Harker from ''ComicBook/TheTombOfDracula''

* {{Ghostapo}}: HYDRA, naturally. Emily mentions the rumours that her unit had heard about them made it sound like they were "conducting Doctor Frankenstein-like experiments in gloomy châteaux across the Loire".

-->''When the war is over, if he survives the serum, they'll still put him, and men like him, to use. He sees it now, the map with all the battle lines drawn, where all the points of friction are. They're the borders that cross Africa and Asia, drawn in London and Paris by men who'd never seen those places. The current alliance is temporary and there will be a fight for the spoils of war should they win. It's happened before, and it will happen again.''

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/29687031/chapters/72999177 Sixes and Sevens]]'' is an ''Series/AgentCarter'' and ''ComicBook/TheInvadersMarvel'' HistoricalFiction fanfic by Mitchi_476 that follows Peggy's brother Michael Carter and is described as "One part elsewhere fic. One part Agent Carter continuation. And one part soft reboot of the MCU."

In 1941, Michael Carter was supposedly killed in the front lines of World War II. He survives, however, and the Special Operations Executive see a golden opportunity. Carter is given a new identity - Brian Falsworth - and sent to join Operation Meridian, the British equivalent of Project Rebirth. When Dr. Erskine is assassinated in America, Major "Falsworth" is sent on a mission through the Middle East to track down an old colleague of Dr. Erskine's in the hopes that Britain can get their own super soldier. Joined by Emily Gower, who soon gets her own [[CanonCharacterAllAlong false identity]], the two must evade Nazis, HYDRA agents, and local governments in order to secure an advantage for the Allied forces.

-->She's gotten used to a certain level of pulp fiction that her life has become since joining the SOE. But this was like an Creator/HGWells story. What next, martians?

** Emily figures out that "Brian Falsworth" is a cover identity because he has no personal affects in his office, despite allegedly being in the field for years. All it takes after that is some picked lops and very sloppy bookkeeping to find Michael's original file, or what's left of it after being redacted.

* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: In the comics, Brian was the son of James Montgomery Falsworth. Here the two characters are unrelated, as Brian is actually Peggy's brother Michael.

The story is part of a series titled ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/series/2146323 The Invaders]]'', implying that other characters from the comic will make an appearance. It also has a prologue/flash forward, ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/29230191 Death in the Golden Hour]], taking place immediately after the attack on Jack Thompson in the final moments of ''Agent Carter''.
