Scarlet #1

"I live in a world where there is great protest. In Portland, even though we started this book eight years ago, it was because there was so much protest here. The idea that a revolution would start here did not seem crazy. It wouldn't shock us. Years have gone by and the protests have gotten more intense and the city politics around those protests have gotten intense in a way that I couldn't even perceive. It fueled the idea, the over-the-top idea, that a protest could go so far to shut a city down and paralyze the government that is supposed to be dealing with it. It was one of those ideas that sounded crazy when I started, and more and more, it just sounds like anything in the world doesn’t sound that crazy [anymore]. I started with, 'what would be the most insane idea I could think of that I could go to thinking I would be years ahead of the curve?’ Yet I still feel it’s not that ahead of the curve." -- Brian Michael Bendis

I'm including the "previously" page just because this is the new start of a series that was released sporadically throughout the years (it debuted in 2010 and took six years to publish ten issues; I actually had no idea it was even finished) but I'll remove it if this violates any rules.
