And I do mean adult, with mature language, genitalia, sex and lots of brutal violence.
But this book is actually very good and doesn't deserve the snark.
It tells the unlikely story of the origin of the universe, the death of its rulers, the surprising destiny of an unlikely protagonist, assassination attempts, pudgy kids, naked moms and so much more.
The story and art are by Steve Skroce with colors by Dave Stewart. It's loaded with remarkable events (on a scale both impossibly big and quite intimate), interesting characters (though not always likable ones), and events that will keep you guessing throughout.
The art is a delight, brimming with imagination and grisly delights, amazing environments and excellent character and creature designs.
This isn't for everyone - remember, adult stuff herein. But if you're a fan of Saga, this definitely follows in its footsteps - smart, funny and thrilling, all with an edge and an inventive story.
Highly recommended. For adults.
Grade: A
