well you can't pull that in account. I mean we only see "Maggie" in the flashbacks told by Tom Waits. Much like we see the Quaker in the flashbacks who's portrayed by Harry Dean Stanton but as we all know the Quaker was Christopher Walken.
I personally think yes, Myra and Maggie are the same person. I think the author included the whole Zach / Maggie storyline just to *beep* with us. The time frame and the motives (Myra helping Hans stalking a killer, much like Maggie helped Zach killing killers)just fit too perfectly. By not especially stating it McDonagh keeps us guessing, but for me the two black women are the same person. There wouldn't be much need for the Zachariah character and his backgrounds otherwise, because he's the only actual psychopaths who answered to the newspaper ad. We didn't have a "oh, a bunch of boring weirdos tell their lame stories to score a place in Marty's book"-casting scene.
