At long last, a deluxe hardcover of the Eisner and Hugo Award-winning SAGA is finally here!
Collecting the first 18 issues of the smash-hit series, this massive edition features a striking new cover, as well as special extras, including never-before-seen sketches, script pages, and a roundtable discussion with the creators about how SAGA is really made. Altogether, this hardcover contains over 500 pages for less than fifty bucks!
Written by Eisner Award-winning "Best Writer" BRIAN K. VAUGHAN (Y: The Last Man, The Private Eye) and drawn by Harvey Award-winning "Best Artist" Fiona Staples (Mystery Society, North 40), SAGA is the story of Hazel, a child born to star-crossed parents from opposite sides of a never-ending galactic war. Now, Hazel's fugitive family must risk everything to find a peaceful future in a harsh universe that values destruction over creation. Fantasy and science fiction are wed like never before in a sexy, subversive drama for adults that Entertainment Weekly called, "The kind of comic you get when truly talented superstar creators are given the freedom to produce their dream book."

I've only read a couple of graphic novels. I saw the rave reviews on this series and decided to check it out. I was not disappointed! The story follows Hazel and her parents as they try to survive and find a safe place to live. Her parents are not supposed to be together, they are on opposite sides of a galactic war. The fact that they had a child together puts them in even more danger. This was great! The art, the humor, everything!
Compelling characters, beautiful artwork. I'm grateful that I finally got around to reading this!
I love Saga so much that I finally caved and bought this Deluxe Hardcover version of issues 1-18. I originally borrowed volumes 1-3 in trade paperback from the library. You can read my reviews of those below.
