My Review:
Saga is one of those rare comics that keeps your attention and aren't just entertaining for entertainment sakes but really good. The story is solid and both the artist and writer, Staples and Vaughan, complement one another and work terrifically together.
Seriously. Go. Read. This.
Continuing from Volume Two, Volume Three (which collect issues 13-18) follows Alana and Marko, along with their baby Hazel and their other companions (I'm trying to keep this review as spoil
Gwendolyn, Marko's ex, is still trying to find them along with The Will, a freelancer and his partner Lying Cat. I love Lying Cat and the sweet moment she had with Sophie, the former Slave Girl. It was so sweet!
I liked that Gwendolyn wasn't just a vindictive bitch out for revenge and really, all the characters are human (well you know what I mean) and grounded which ties the story together and makes you want to keep reading.
