This was an interesting aspect of the series but also in some ways not necessary. I understand having one "beauty" killer but having an additional one seemed a little like overkill. I did enjoy learning how the characters from volume 1 for their start. It made everything so interesting. This is definitely an insight to the social ramifications to having the beauty or even wanting the beauty or just wanting to date without having to worry about the beauty. Yes this comic book series is science fiction in nature but it's also a social statement which is what I really enjoy. I'm interesting in seeing where they take the rest of this comic.

The Beauty Vol. 3 (issues 12-16) is a prequel to Volume one and we are back to detectives Drew Foster and Kara Vaughn and how they started on the newly formed Beauty Task Force. It’s nice to be back with them in this police procedural and get a bit of back story of both Foster and Vaughn as they hunt for maybe more than one serial killer.
Themes: it’s a prequel, The Narcissus killer, some people are willing to die to get The Beauty and some will kill you for having it.
4 Stars

What a spectacular installment to this series! I am loving this story. There are still questions I have but I think I will get the answers eventually. And I can’t wait to see the different storylines meet up.
