Comic Book Review of 'Scarlet # 1 '

Redheads are crazy, redheads are fun, redheads should wear their hair short, listen to Bad Religion  and have a chain connected to their wallet, sitting in the pocket of their heavily warn, stain wash jeans. OK OK, ending my daydream.

Scarlet is interesting to me for a few reasons.  In the first 10 pages you really want to love this chick. Then about 3/4 of the way through it you want to hate her. I mean really! Why the f..k do you like this idiot blond dip-shit with the headphones around his neck. In the end, it brings you back to the beginning (yep) and you can see she has something inside her that you crave to like.

Lets talk art... Much of this is personal but to me this art matches the dirtiness of the story and Scarlet herself. Because of the way it is drawn and the color some will hate it. Sorry to you folks. To me it's like you can smell the blood, sweat and pheromones (I don't think pheromones actually smell).

To me the best part of the book is page 11 - 13 where Scarlet's life milestones are documented in many small titled images. To me this is brilliantly laid out and kind of makes me laugh because I could relate to the milestones in a funny way.  Finally, I think this book will resonate with people because we all sometimes feel like  "damn, I have taken enough of this shit". Scarlet feels that way and it looks like she has been doing something about it. What has she been doing?
