A review by octavia_cade
Saga #1 by Brian K. Vaughan
adventurous
fast-paced
3.0
I have to admit, I've heard of Saga quite a bit, but never in detail. It takes up a chunk of space on the library's graphic novel shelves, so I thought I'd give it a go. I liked it - and I like that the first issue is a double-sized chunk; it makes it easier to get into.
I'm interested in the central pair and their kid, but rather less enamoured with the rest of it. Especially those robot things with the tv heads that showed up in a very unsatisfactory sex scene! They leave me confused and bored. I get that a lot of this is set-up, but I can tell you right now that - Romeo and Juliet or not - there's nothing compelling about that universal war. As I said: I do like the family, though.
