Volume 3 - 1st printing.

Written by Ryohgo Narita. Art and cover by Suzuhito Yasuda.

"Could you kill someone? Working as an information broker in Shinjuku, just toying with all those people... But could you, Izaya Orihara, kill someone? Directly, by your own hand? Not stabbing someone with your knife just right to keep them from dying while you keep dodging the question, I mean. Well, whatever... In the end, you're the kind of guy who uses other people to do your dirty work. You're hilariously cowardly."

Tokyo, Ikebukuro. Loads of baggage from the past are starting to turn up: A boss trying to escape the past. A pair of high school girls with consciences. A boy unaware of his friend's feelings for him. A man planning a takeover. A boy who uses information to manipulate others. And a headless rider on a pitch-black motorcycle--all headed on a collision course that will decide who will overcome their past and who will become nothing more than a memory...

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "King of Cats!" Collects Finder (1998) #15-18. Story and art by Carla Speed McNeil. Included is all-new material - scenes that didn't fit in the regular issues, exhaustive footnotes, new covers, and chapter-heading portraits. Jaeger Ayers doesn't take to crowds or conformity, and there's an abundance of both in Munkytown. There are also personal connections for him. Meet the Ascians, whose tribal culture is on display to visitors eager to spend and afternoon in Noble Savage Land; and the Nyima, the lion-people in danger of losing their pride the longer they stay in the theme park. Munkytown has the economic upper hand in an uneasy alliance where nothing is what it seems. But power takes many forms, and that's where a Finder comes in handy. Softcover, 120 pages, B&W Cover price $13.95.
