    I like comics that engage me in multifaceted ways, and Scarlet Witch #8 does just that. While I was ready to give up the ghost, fearing that the series had lost its luster to the annals of a problematic continuity, I'm glad that this installment is deep, nuanced, and layered. Robinson's skill as a writer shines, and Lotay's wonderful art conveys the emotional undercurrent of this story and Wanda's relationship with her past. This may be an issue that is divisive, but I think it's important to digest. It represents the parts of Wanda that many of us detest, while providing a context around them that changes her current dynamic and how it relates to her prior actions. Read Full Review

    Scarlet Witch #8 seems to be where we draw the line between her recent adventures, and a new one that seems to be a bit more goal oriented in terms of what she is getting out of the payoff personally. Not a problem at all because this journey was worth every stone she turned to prove the person she has become. Read Full Review

    On my first read, I wasn't a fan of this book, but I like it more the more I read it. It's not a perfect issue by any means, but it humanizes a super powerful character and sets up what seems like more action and story progression moving forward. Read Full Review
