Dogs: Prelude by Shirow Miwa

3.0

It probably would have been best if I had started with volume 1, but whenever I see a volume 0 in store I feel obligated to start with that one. "Prelude" is an apt title for this volume, as it is sort of a disconnected collection of origin stories, of how each of the series' characters came to know one another/work with each other/etc. The way the art and storylines are constructed makes it feel you should already be familiar with the characters when reading this volume, and I was not. This made it hard to tell some characters apart visually, and I couldn't keep any names straight at all. It does create an interesting premise for the series as a whole, but not enough for me to continue with it.
