I feel it's a comic that you can introduce people to the comic realm like how I have shows that introduce people to anime. I love properties that have that ability to change someone's mind on a subculture/genre/etc.

im telling ya, yes the story is great, the art is great, but the reason it is, and will get bigger is that the broads love it.

You can call it hype if you want to... but, I think (almost could say "know") Saga...

 

WILL

GET

BIGGER

hm So maybe I should have bought some multiples of the 2nd print instead of the first. Is this the case with other Saga's? I would love for someone to share order numbers of all the saga prints

Took my daughter to the library today and I sees the Saga TPB on the shelf. Picked it up, and man it took everything I had to get through issue #1. Forcing myself to read the last few pages. It must get better but man that was a tough read. I'll finish parts two and three but after that I'll return the damn thing if I can't figure out what the hell is going on.

If you're having trouble following Saga, stay far away from anything written by Grant Morrison. :gossip:

Those are great sales numbers for an Indie book. Usually interest starts to drop off after 6 issues but the book has actually gone up a bit. I hope it stays strong!

I've heard a similar complaint about the book from a lot of boardies around here. I just don't think the story and dialogue is for everyone.

 

Personally, I'm loving it. It does have it's odd moments though. Like the start of last issue with the sex flashback felt odd. I've heard some dirty talk in my day, but I've never heard some of the stuff they were saying.

 

But everything else was perfect!

No really, thanks for digging this info up. I thought about this and still prefer the first prints even with the rarity of the 2nd prints, 3rds, etc. If the covers were different that would be a different story for me.
