Okay I was going to write a big review on why I didnt like this comic but I got lazy and I dont think it need anything else then to say that it is not what one expects it doesnt give much understanding of what the darkhold is to wanda it is expected to already know what Cthon and the darkhold has dont to the scarlet witch and her persona. the only thing i like about this comic was the wasp story line, iron mans, and spider-mans although the latter one was okay not as scary as iron mans and the wasps. i do not recommend it as it just a small continuation of the connection scarlet witch has with cthon and the darkhold. i give it a two stars because of the wasps and iron mans storys when they read the darkhold.

Juntas que pudieron ser un mail hecho cómic. Orlando tiene buen tino para Wanda. Los one-shots de en medio están un poco de sobra en terminos de trama. Como siempre, unos buenos, otros malos. Deja a Wanda en un lugar interesante. Tiene más sentido leerlo después de Trial of Magneto.

A good read but needed more of a storyline. Worth a read but I wouldn’t pay full price for it.
The illustrations were amazing! The character designs were gorgeous! A lot of thought went into it and you can tell. Easily one of the best things about this comic. Also the variant covers are stunning, you should check those out!
Now the bad part….
The main storyline (the first and last comic) needed more going on. It was very straight forward and ended very quickly. There was no struggle when fighting chthon it was over it a matter of pages.
It took me a hot minute and a google search to realise that the middle comics with the individual characters are what if? dark stand alones (I could’ve just been really dumb and not realised). These ranged from amazing to boring af.
IronMan - AMAZING. I had chills. This is the level of story telling that I was expecting. Put the dark in darkhold.
Blade - so boring I instantly forgot what actually happened (spoiler: it wasn’t a lot).
Wasp - got better as you read on. Predictable but we appreciate a girl boss moment
Black bolt - boring until the end twist which was the end couple pages
Spider-Man - a solid meh.
Overall, this could (and hopefully) will be used as references for future marvel projects. I wish it had a stronger storyline because the concept is great, they just didn’t quite nail it.
For anyone wondering, I bought the comic at Forbidden Planet, it sells for £14.99 :)
