They are not scared to make big decisions, kill important characters and break the reader's heart. As a result, no matter who is winning the reader ends up heartbroken.Īnd that's my favourite thing about Saga: how ballsy it is. This unusual way of alternating sides makes the reader rooting for everyone, even though the characters are working against each other. I have fallen in love with every single character and what's interesting about this story is that we follow both the main protagonists and their antagonists (or what would traditionally be the comic book villains if you will). But oh boy, was it worth the wait!Īfter 54 issues the story has really come a long way and it was in this volume that the complexities of each story arc culminated to an explosive mid-point. I started reading Saga almost two years ago, but because I took the decision to only read it in the form of these collected editions and not the individual issues or volumes (just because I like my graphic novels chunky), I have been waiting for this for over a year.
