A tale 126 years in the making! The clandestine cult of hooded figures called The Founding Fathers has finally caught up to the cocky-and eternally unlucky-mercenary Simon Pure. For the first time since their macabre ritual gave Simon immortality in 1776, we learn new secrets behind that moment and the magic that powered it! Also: can 13-year-old Albert Einstein tap into his genius to help Simon? He'll think about it, but the odds aren't looking great.

Jul 17, 2024Redcoat #4 delivers emotional character development entangled in good old-fashioned buddy cop fun and action. The cliffhanger at the end came as a massive surprise to me as I did not see it coming, which makes this story add a layer of complexion to it. Midway through the year, this may be the comic of 2024.

Jul 16, 2024Redcoat #4 is a table-setting issue for sure, with a chunk of it way too decompressed. It's a quick read, especially with the first six pages seemingly buffer to fill out its pages. Still, the lore and world building continue to be compelling enough to pick this one up. Read Full Review

Plot Simón Pure is tied up and is about to be part of the reverse rite that 126 years ago gave him immortality, but now it is going to be taken away. The new rite consists of using George Washington's ax to bleed him and recover the power of immortality that should have belonged to Benjamin Franklin. This sect is called The Founding Fathers and its leader is The Grand Architect, its symbolism and hierarchy sounds a lot like the Masons, but this group is not peaceful, it wants to end the federal union of the United States. Einstein frees Simon, they are both rescued by Benedict Arnold, who wishes to recover the book of incantations from and he also reveals to Simon and Albert that The Grand Architect is...GEORGE WASHINGTON! who is st more
