Deadly Class #26 explores Saya's past. It also delves into some of the gender and crime issues that the Catholic Church faces. Who'd have thought that the Yakuza and Papacy are basically the same thing? There's so much dismissal of women in Japanese culture (as presented here) that after all is said and done, it may be more likely that a woman would rather get revenge against another woman than the person in their family responsible for her suffering, just because the guilty party stands to pee. Wesley Craig's art is a great specific fit for drawing Tokyo. There's Blade Runner neon and Takeshi Kitano honor seeping through every panel.

That's all cool, but Marcus is alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Did Saya leave him alive? Is that part of her current suffering? Are most betrayals this great?
