One of the most impressive moments in the history of the series, for me, was the moment that Miko was looking at her hands right after she killed Shojo. Despite the stick figure format, Rich masterfully yet subtley conveyed the "What have I done ...?" moment, truly some evocative storytelling that made her immediate reversion to "It's everyone's fault but mine!" that much sadder. Now we see a side that may take her in the right direction after all. Rich is doing some great characterization between hilarious jokes, no doubt about it. No wonder we all love this strip!
