This series just keeps getting better and better. As the story progresses, the characters become richer and more complex, and the stakes higher and more personal. The writing is sharp and the artwork a completely immersive experience in atmosphere. All the praise i heaped on run of the mill Batman and Daredevil collections earlier on this blog seem foolish in light of reading this original, one of a kind series. It's one thing to take a beloved superhero and make them look good within their element. It's an entirely other level of art form to take a situation like real Lakota historic elements and wrap it up in an original, breathtaking piece of real crime drama and tragedy. Scalped is essential reading.
5 stars out of 5
