Jormungand, Vol. 3

R to L (Japanese Style). Death is their business, and business is good. Koko Hekmatyar's brother Kasper and Jonah face each other down, but settling old scores may have to wait a bit longer. Then Koko and her team head for South Africa looking for Japanese robotics scientist Dr. Minami Amada, whose inventions have profitable military applications. Naturally, the competition would like to meet the good doctor as well, and the race is on to find her. In the international arms trading game, Koko likes to keep her friends close and her enemies closer, but getting too close to Koko is a good way to end up in a body bag...
