Well, this one definitely isn't for kids - but it's mighty entertaining.Saga follows the time-honored tradition of telling a big story from the very beginning - namely, the birth of the main character.
The humble birth is the result of a forbidden love between a couple from different races - and as a result, many powerful forces are aligning against them and trying to hunt them down.
To tell more would spoil the fun that awaits. The story written by Brian K. Vaughan is a delight, with great dialogue, loads of surprises and wonderful characters.
The art is by Fiona Staples, and it's wonderful - expressive, personal and panoramic all at once, with great character designs and powerful layouts.
My only complaint is that it's very difficult to review this comic without giving away too much. It's a heck of a deal, with 44 pages for a mere $2.99!
All that and a cliffhanger ending - I can't wait to see where this goes from here!
