Miss Don't Touch Me: Complete Set by Hubert
3.0
Miss Don't Touch Me is how I would describe myself. Don't like to be touched and generally disdain the male sex, so my brother bought this graphic novel for me. And it was awesome! At least at first...
The first story, "The Butcher of the Dances" was excellent. An innocent girl stumbles upon a secret that gets her into trouble and she vows revenge on the monsters that ruined her life. That story kept your attention with nerve wrecking tension and plot twists. You didn't know whom to trust or what would happen. It was great. But the second story, "Prince Charming" was not as good. Our heroine, now complete in her mission for justice is seemingly in limbo. She has nothing to live for until some dude comes along and she fancies herself in love. But that of course is not what it seems.
The second part falls so flat you could almost forget what you love about the story and the art in the first place. It just kind of meanders about, trying to recapture the depth and the heroism of its first volume, but to no avail. I would recommend volume one to most everyone, but I would leave it at that. The second part is a pathetic attempt to continue a story that was already complete. Part one: 4.4/5 Part two: 2/5 Average: 3/5
