Mar 18, 2017Bits and Pieces:While we take a break from the main plot and flush out Kira's character. You'll get emotionally attached to her after you finish this issue. But don't worry, though. In no way would I consider this a down issue in any sorts. By the end, the issue will still move the overall story forward. Read Full Review

Mar 15, 2017You should read Kill or Be Killed. I think it's a book that anyone can appreciate. You don't have to just like crime books, or detective books, this is about real people in real situations, and in real trouble real soon. Dylan is on a crash course for a bad ending, but the book keeps me guessing, and I love it for that. It is continuously one of my favorite comics every month, and I highly recommend to everyone.

Mar 14, 2017No guns, explosions, or blood, but we still get a beautifully crafted story about arguably the most important person in Dylan's life. Read Full Review

We The Nerdy - Chad Waller
Mar 14, 2017All in all, this and the last issue feel like necessary evils. KobK thinks it needs more characters, and now we have them. With that out of the way, they can start interacting, and hopefully, well be back to me adoring this series for the twisted, dark, edgy glory that I know it can be. Read Full Review

Comic Bastards - Daniel Vlasaty
Mar 15, 2017I want to say again that I love this book. And even though I might not have been super into this issue, I still though it was interesting to get more background on Kira. Although, I do have a fear that this was kind of a throwaway issue. I'm not really sure how all of that back and forth with Kira and her therapist is going to connect to the overall story. My thinking is that it probably isn't going to. Read Full Review

This issue, while poorly reviewed by many on here, is purely necessary. This strong insight into Kira is really emotionally moving and connects to the character. Despite this book being about Dylan, I love the time they take to make us care about the other characters, not just his narrative perception of them. We know Dylan cares about Kira, and we know she cheated on her boyfriend, but little else. This kind of issue helps us understand what there is to love and relate to in her, and how much she actually cares about Dylan. The writing of this series, despite touching on dark and difficult subjects, is breaking away from a Miller-esque edginess that made earlier issues a bit harder to appreciate. So excited for the rest of this series.

A very surprising and unexpected issue, but definitely enjoyable and relevant. This series has the best characterization in all of today's comic-books, both in writing and art, so an issue like this one definitely has its place.

This was not what I was expecting from this book, but it was an interesting read nonetheless. This issue has lost a bit of momentum in the last two issues, as we break away from Dylan's narrative, but I imagine this is to fill out the story and make it deeper, which is fine.
