I wasn't that much into the drug and near-cheating, but otherwise really enjoyed the story

Ghüs, Friendo, Lying Cat, Sweet Boy, Hazel, and Sophie. Must protect them at all costs.

Loving the character interactions and found family aspects.

The sexual content and crude dialogue can be a little much at times.
I’m over seeing The Will having sexual flashbacks with The Stalk. Unless, she isn’t actually dead. But we get it, they hooked up a lot and he has mixed feelings.
 

Robot King reveal made me laugh.
his head is a giant flat screen TV and it was playing Niagara Falls footage. A full page spread too.

I love how the Saga series doesn't shy away from the horrors of love and new parenthood. It's equal part love, humour, and gore (just like life!) All wrapped up in an epic adventure across the universe, between warring races who make us reflect on our own flaws as a society (as good sci-fi does!) Love this series and highly reccomend it.

I'll be honest, I was a little nervous about the introduction of another storyline. I know that from a genre perspective, comics and graphic novels are supposed to be a great medium for having parallel storylines that intersect only at the author's desire - that it can all be connected or not at all. Still, it seemed a bit risky given that while we had definitely come to a stopping point in other storylines, we had not actually come to their conclusion. But the twist and integration into the overarching plot worked very well - I'm intrigued to see what happens when our heroes arrive at this destination. Well, maybe heroes is a stretch, and they still have to find their destination, if they actually can, but you get what I mean.
