Variant Cover by MICHAEL AVON OEMING
From the Eisner award-winning team that brought you Daredevil, Halo, and the Avengers comes another startling new chapter in their first ever creator owned series. You've met Scarlet and now you know who she is and what she wants... the world is a corrupt broken place and she is going to fix it. But how far is she willing to go? She is talking revolution right here in the United States!! But where does one start such a thing? 40 PGS.

BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS

A strange comic, really, since it is the oh-so-common story where the protagonist has led a peaceful life until some injustice drops like a bomb into her lap. Then comes the anger, the call for justice. But Scarlet is different, in that Bendis focuses on two angles: first, like The Office, the protagonist falls out of the story and talks directly to the reader, which works very well, shockingly enough. The second is a heavy focus on character, with subtle takes on mood and voice, accomplished not by drowning everything with heavy-handed talk, but by giving the artist freedom to show casual movements, flashes of facial emotion. It’s gotten kudos, for sure, and well-deserved. Some may not enjoy the art, but I like the pages (yes, pages) without words. Some may feel the story cliché, and it is, but it lets the art and the storytelling out to play. A nice thumbs up; it’s not often that the artist is allowed equal share of the comic, but here is one example.
I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams
