Demon Days: Mariko (2021) #1 by Peach MoMoKo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is what you get when you mix Japanese folklore with the Marvel Universe (in a story that isn’t about giving Wolverine a hefty dose of man pain).
Stunningly illustrated by Peach Momoko, this issue weaves a tale of mystery and mysticism and features an alternate version of Black Widow that makes the character far more interesting than she’s ever been. The central character, Mariko, learns that everyone she knows and loves has been lying to her all of her life, and that she’s not even human.
I’m very much looking forward to the next issue in this series!
