D2 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I saw the announcement as well. I am glad Saga is back. I think there were far too many fans of the series to let it disappear into the night. Saga was actually the book that got me back into reading comic books after a decade long break. My only concern has been that this series will become even more SJWaga than ever. BKV always pushed the boundaries with peoples’ perceived understanding about diversity and normality, but the purpose of the character arcs have weakened in 3 trade increments. Chapters 1-18 are near flawless, whereas 19-36 felt much weaker, and 37-54 were, to me, significantly worse.

GeeksAreMyPeeps Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Apparently the first issue back is somewhat graphic. One of the questions at the Vaughn panel at NYCC involved reading comics on the subway, and he suggested that you not read this issue on the subway.

grendelbo Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Very excited. I didn't read it until the compendium came out. Devoured the thing. I've already reread it once. Question now is will I begin collecting moderns? This series would be the one. Point Five and Funnybooks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The covers alone are just gorgeous. Funnybooks, grendelbo and Timmay 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troydivision1 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Saga Adjacent. Just back from CGC and this one surprised me. Not because there are less than 50 in the census, but because it is the only Universal 9.8 and none are graded higher. (In census currently - 1 Qualified, 33 SS, 0 Universal) HighVoltage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
