ok i just randomly read this and it is apparently number 3, so i am probably missing a lot of info.
-miho is a bad bitch
-i felt full of suspense and really liked it, satisfying fight scenes
-what is the deal with the swastikas tho? i am confusion. they are going the hindu religious direction and not the nazi direction, and she has star of david and crosses too, but i am just wondering what the religious iconography is for

Upon re-reading this I still thing this one is the weakest of the first three volumes that I've read. But Deadly Little Miho is awsome!

And then book three. At least this time I remember who Dwight is. I definitely hadn't read these back to back before. This one is not scripted nearly as tightly. It is still dark but doesn't feel twisted and evil. And the violent art isn't nearly as easy to follow. And the characters and settings not nearly as distinctive. So it kind of feels like it is coasting from the previous volumes. Still good, but not nearly as good.
