Anna Mercury
Anna Mercury #4 – Comic Review
I’m Devin Curry with http://Shazap.com. Your online video source for comic book news and reviews. Follow me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/devincurry. You know I love this book and am kind of sad to hear that it will be wrapping up with the next issue. I love the world that they have created and the painted cover variants have been some of the best cover’s I’ve seen and definitely go into my favorite list. Last issue the mane character, Anna Mercury came back to our earth and pealed away all the pieces of her alter ego to reveal the person underneath. At first I was a little disappointed because like the people of Sheol, I wanted to believe that a person like Anna Mercury actually existed. She was strong, powerful and just a plain old badass. Warren Ellis however did a great job of showing Mercury within the person. She is a true hero and is jumping back into action. This issue leaves us with quite a cliff hanger and the classic set of insurmountable odds that make for great adventure. This is a great series and I can’ it wait for the final book.

Premise
Anna Mercury is a leather-clad, red-headed hero who travels between parallel worlds, fighting to keep advanced weaponry from being used by more primitive worlds.
On Earth, in the modern day United Kingdom, Anna Mercury is actually Anna Louise Britton, an agent of the government, tasked with missions in the nine parallel worlds adjacent to our own. Anna’s travels through the space between worlds charges her equipment that lets her defy gravity, move through solid objects, and perform other feats, though the energy is limited and must be monitored closely.
