much of the original concept was
abandoned in favor of the current plot.[1]

Reception
Scalped has been met with near universal
praise throughout its run. Comic Book
Resources referred to it as "one of the few
comics capable of evoking real, visceral
emotion from the reader",[4] and
Newsarama called the final issue an "awe
inspiring conclusion" and gave the issue a
score of 10 out of 10.[5]
