A superpowered revenge thriller by legendary writer J. Michael Straczynski and superstar artist ACO!

In THE MADNESS, Sarah Ross has been using her superpowers as a thief, stealing from the rich and...well, keeping it. Until the day she stole from the wrong person, a highly placed official who pressures the government to assassinate her. The plot, aided by so-called "good" superheroes sponsored by the government, misses her but wipes out her family. Driven mad by grief, and laser-focused on revenge for the murder of her family, Sarah and a hidden side of her personality-an imaginary friend who may be more real than she believe more

    Art
    It is very detailed and full of highlights that show everything from the most intimate moments to the most devastating, with gore or explicit details of viscera and blood, it is undoubtedly hypnotizing. It includes an immense amount of pages with action sequences of epic scale.



    Plot
    The superhero genre is analyzed from a real and disturbing psychological point of view, where the psyche of a superhuman is broken thanks to corruption and politics cruelly intertwined, so revenge is the only cure that Sarah has to cure her madness. Reading is addictive at a dizzying narrative pace.
