Scarlet #7 – 2013 continues the bold, politically charged narrative from award-winning creators Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev, offering another gritty, emotionally charged chapter in one of the most provocative creator-owned comics of the 2010s. Published by Icon (Marvel’s creator-owned imprint), this issue builds on the momentum of the series with a mix of personal stakes and societal rebellion.
Following the story of Scarlet Rue, a young woman who becomes the face of a new American revolution after exposing corruption and suffering unbearable loss, this issue further explores the consequences of defying a broken system. In Scarlet #7, the uprising has reached a critical point. As tension escalates between protestors and law enforcement, Scarlet's message grows louder, more urgent—and more dangerous. Bendis’s sharp dialogue and naturalistic pacing make the story feel as immediate as today’s headlines.
Alex Maleev’s art continues to shine with his signature photo-realistic style and moody palette. Every panel feels cinematic, immersing readers in the atmosphere of urban unrest and emotional turmoil. His work here doesn’t just illustrate the script—it amplifies it, giving a sense of raw realism rarely matched in mainstream comics. The panel layouts and visual rhythm also play a vital role in conveying the chaos and control at the heart of the rebellion.
Part social commentary, part personal revenge saga, Scarlet #7 is as intelligent as it is incendiary. It’s a powerful addition to the series that challenges conventional storytelling and remains painfully relevant in its themes of resistance, truth, and power.
