PRICE WATERSTONES: 7,50 

From New York Times bestselling writer BRIAN K.VAUGHAN (Y: THE LAST MAN, EX MACHINA) and critically acclaimed artist FIONA STAPLES (MYSTERY SOCIETY, NORTH 40), SAGA is the sweeping tale of one young family fighting to find their place in the worlds. When two soldiers from opposite sides of a never-ending galactic war fall in love, they risk everything to bring a fragile new life into a dangerous old universe. Fantasy and science fiction are wed like never before in a sexy, subversive drama for adults.

Saga es un cómic para adultos que me llevaban recomendando durante mucho tiempo y debo agradecer a mi amiga por insistirme tanto en ello. Si decides leerlo, prepárate para no poder parar. La mejor descripción que viene a mi mente es la siguiente: imagina que Romeo y Julieta decidieran luchar y añade un bebe, el universo y la búsqueda de un mundo en el que su amor sea posible. Simplemente, genial. 

El diseño y las ilustraciones son preciosas y el autor incluye toques de humor. Además de lo original de la narración, desde el punto de vista de su hija. Tanto si eres un adicto a los comics como si comienzas con ellos con Saga ten claro que va a ser una adicción. Yo no puedo esperar a hacerme con los cuatro volúmenes que hay a la venta de momento. 

Saga is a comic for adults that a friend has been recommending to me for a long long time and I have to tell her a big thanks for that. If you decide to read it, get ready not to stop because is that good. The best way to describe it is: imagine a world where Romeo and Juliet decided to fight and add a baby, the outer space and the adventures of looking for a place in the unirverse where their love is possible. Just amazing. 

The artwork is brilliant and the author includes some humour and I think he does great picking the baby to tell us the story. 

I believe this is perfect for everyone, does not matter if you are a big fan of comics or you will start in the genre with Saga, I can assure you it will be addictive. I can't wait to buy the other four volumes are available at the moment.
