Revolutionary War: Dark Angel #1

Dark Angel strides forward against a bold Union Jack backdrop, dual guns in hand and gold-clawed gauntlet gleaming — it's a striking portrait of one of Marvel UK's most formidable heroines, rendered here by cover artist Mark Brooks with real kinetic confidence. Part of Marvel's 2014 Revolutionary War event revisiting the British corner of the Marvel universe, this issue brings together writer Kieron Gillen and artist Dietrich Smith, with colors by Ruth Redmond, for a story cheekily titled "Girlfriend In a Coma." If you've ever wanted to see Dark Angel get her moment in the spotlight, this is a fine place to start.
