    We The Nerdy - Kierra Prince May 30, 2014

    I really wish I could discuss more ofCreepy Scarlett but there are so many incredible things that get revealed that it'd really be a disservice to anyone interested in picking this up. Scarlett's history is shown just enough that we understand her desire for vengeance but her origin is still a mystery. One of the villains is given a bit of a sidekick role but you can't shake the feeling that there's more to him, and flashbacks and dialogue hint that he may become a major player later on. There's mysterious hooded figures that attempt to keep Scarlett at task but also seem concerned that she may let hate take over. The amount of artifacts and their mysterious powers are barely touched. Book One was a near perfect collection of issues that gave you just enough information to suck you in and keep you turning pages.Add in some hilarious and well placed humor (there's a great carousel gag in issue 3 that had me cracking up) andCreepy Scarlett itself is a near perfect comic that I'd tell any Read Full Review

    There are some serious weaknesses here, but overall, I'm enjoying myself. I want to see more of the artifacts and the powers they unlock in Scarlett, and I want to learn about the powers that be and why they are what they are. My only concern is that some of what I'm calling mysterious is really just a plot hole, and that I'm giving them too much credit because I like Scarlett so much. Of course, even if I'm wrong, I'm still having fun with it. Totally worth checking out. Read Full Review

    Bounding Into Comics - John F. Trent Jun 22, 2015

    Creepy Scarlett was a fun read with a quirky yet strong female protagonist. You can't really refer to her as a hero just yet because she has a tendency to get a little crazy especially when possessed with the Emerald of Lucifer. Graeme Buchan's writing was fun with plenty of one-liners that had me cracking up. He does a good job of introducing a multitude of characters and providing them with distinctive personalities. However, the artwork was up and down. During the action sequences it was fun and exciting and captured a variety of different combat styles and techniques effectively. Yet some of the characters' body proportions and eye positioning was off to the extent it became distracting. There was also a major continuity error regarding Emily's hair color which made it difficult to identify who she was. Read Full Review
