Scarlet #1
This volume collects the first story arc of the 2018 DC series Scarlet, a gritty crime drama that follows a young woman seeking vengeance against a corrupt system after a personal tragedy. Written by Brian Michael Bendis with art by Alex Maleev, the book reimagines the vigilante archetype through a modern, noir-infused lens.
Scarlet #1, written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Alex Maleev, kicks off with Scarlet Rue on the FBI’s 10-most-wanted list, thrusting her into a high-stakes chase that shifts the investigation from local cops to federal agents. As Brandon helps her orchestrate a flashmob, Scarlet confronts her past in a tense moment with her mother—setting the stage for a performance that blurs the line between protest and power. The cover by Alex Maleev captures the issue’s electric tension, with his signature moody style anchoring the story’s bold, grounded tone.
