The 8th paperback volume just came out this month, which is what prompted my Saga binge this week - I re-read #5, then continued straight through 6, 7, and 8. Saga is available as standard comic editions, but I prefer to wait and read the trade-paperback editions. (Unless they’re very cool coworkers, but you might be at risk of violating some company policies… ) Take note that Saga is definitely NSFW - between gory violence and explicit illustrations of sex acts and genitalia, this isn’t something you want your coworkers reading over your shoulders. The storyline is intense and always surprising, with plenty of danger and violence, but also some truly funny dialogue and situations. The artwork is astounding, with a mind-blowing array of gorgeous, strange, and often disgusting creatures and people and planets. The world of Saga is utterly wonderful, with bizarre beings such as Lying Cat, a race of robots with TV screens for heads, an adorable little seal-like creature who’s dangerous AF, and so much more. Their worlds have been at war for generations, and when they desert their respective armies and begin life on the run together, they’re hunted and despised by both sides. What can I say about the glories of the Saga series? In a nutshell, this comic series tells the story of two star-crossed lovers, Alana and Marko.
