I'm reading this right after issue #1, and the story is getting much more interesting to me. If someone had summarised it as "not the stalker's fault, really," I would have rolled my eyes a bit - exactly as Kate does - but it becomes clear, as the comic goes on, that something much more sinister is happening. Dodgy people are doing dodgy things, yes, but there's a level of outside force, a sort of mind control, that's altering people's behaviour, and for the worse. I thought it was quite creepy, actually - and effectively underlined by the apparent inability of the police department to do anything useful about the situation. Stalking's always been difficult to address, or so I've heard, because so much of it skates the line between legal and not (even if the moral issue is quite clear). Anyway, I am invested now.
