Re-Read 5/16/18:Still a mind-rape for me. Can't write a review through the tears.Original Review:I'm nearly speechless. That ending. Breathtaking.You know when someone is telling the story right when I want to scream and rage and cry, no matter what the medium. The fact that this is a comic is even more astonishing.Seriously. This one blew my mind. I've said before that all comics should use this as a standard to create by, and it's no less true now. Indeed, with all these things happening, I'm
Finally reunited with her ever-expanding family, Hazel travels to a war-torn comet that Wreath and Landfall have been battling over for ages. New friendships are forged and others are lost forever in this action-packed volume about families, combat and the refugee experience.I was worried going into this considering the fact that it's been a hot minute since I read the previous volume. But I needn't have worried, the world Vaughan has created in the Saga series is one easily slipped back into. A...
"And few adventures ended worse than this one"--Hazel“If a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, then a family is more like a rope. We're lots of fragile little strands, and we survive by becoming hopelessly intertwined with each other” –-HazelRight, this is not a comics series defending American exceptionalism and isolation and hating on our enemies as the way to run a planet.Though it does take a complicated stance on pacifism in the character of Marko, who is being pursued by hired gun...
Re-read 1/23/18: My heart is broken all over again :(Original read 4/24/17: This volume was one of the most heart wrenching, most hopeless things I have ever read. I'm so sad :(
Once again, Vaughn and Staples have delivered an incredible new volume of Saga. Finally reunited, Hazel's family desperately needs fuel and has to make a hazardous stop on the comet Phang. Bounty hunters abound such as the splendid Gwendolyn and Sophie who now has the Lying Cat, The Will who has run into some tough luck, and some new ones like The Match. Not to mention The Prince freaking out while Marko deals with his pacifism in a situation where his family is threatened. Most importanty, will...
Reviewed by: Rabid Reads4.5 stars2016 was the year of the graphic novel for me--between Fables and Monstress , I was well and truly hooked, but it was Brian K. Vaughan's SAGA that blew my mind and showed me that, similar to (good) poetry, graphic novels could pack all the insights and feelings of a first person POV full-length novel into a third of the pages and an even smaller fraction of the words. So I've been looking forward to Volume 7 ever since I binge read 1 - 6 last July.I'm a...
“The more you care about someone, the more likely it is that your eventual parting of ways will be as sudden as it is baffling.”Saga is the one graphic novel series that I care more about than any others. Mind you, it's not like I'm a graphic novel expert. I have read Paper Girls, Vol. 1, Giant Days, Vol. 1 and Lumberjanes, but none of them fascinate me like Saga does. Maybe because it's so ruthless but simultaneously so full of hope. Now, what really does not help the case are the countless, me...
This is going to be a short review as I don't do graphic novel reviews very well. First off, be prepared for page 4, you may number them differently in your head but you won't miss the BIG surprise that's right in your face on that page! Lol!I thought the book was awesome as usual and YES, there are sad parts in it. Isn't there always in one way shape or form? We have a lot of the same characters to read, along with some new ones. That's all, I really don't have too much to say, the ending is to...
Well, I gotta admit...I'm relieved.Every single review I've read had the words heartbreaking or tragic in it, so I'd been preparing myself for Hazel to die and somehow this turn out to have been narrated by her ghost or something.But no. Hazel is fine. Whew!So yeah, not everyone is going to make it out of this one but it's still a cool ride. And I'm looking forward to finding out how both of her parents deal with the aftermath of everything that happens in this book.I have to admit, Marko and hi...
Vol. 1 ★★★★Vol. 2 ★★★★Vol. 3 ★★★★★Vol. 4 ★★★★Vol. 5 ★★★★★Vol. 6 ★★★★★ “Nothing in the universe was safe from the endless war between mom’s planet and dad’s moon…” This seventh installment is truly a masterpiece, and one of the most impactful graphic novels I’ve ever read. The ending of this is true and utter perfection, and the emotional range that Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples are able to evoke is truly something I don’t have words for. This but seventh volume truly shows why Sag...
Well, jeez—that was rough. Hopeless resignation. Overwhelming odds. Tragic deaths (redeaths?). Veiny robot schlongs. This series continues to confound and confusticate, but the quality of the storytelling remains high. Fiona Staples seems to have become the lead storyteller, and her art drives things forward in this volume, but BKV’s presence remains undeniably strong.I never know what to expect from this book, and I’m never disappointed (except for when I am occasionally disappointed, so I gues...
When did they start selling pure heartbreak in trade paperback form?Depressing, but excellent.
Saga continues to impress me. It has lost none of its awesomely weird energy. And this is by far the best volume in the series for a very long time. The storytelling here is right on point. I’m very critical of comic books at times because I often find them very linear and formulaic, often more so that novels. Many of the superhero-based stuff from marvel and dc tend to follow a certain pattern and become predictable and repetitive with their relaunches and different versions of the same cha
