RESEÑA: Saga vol. II and III

COMIC - SCI-FI/FANTASY - BRIAN K. VAUGHAN - IMAGE COMICS - SAGA VOL. II & III

SAGA is sweeping tale of one young family fighting to find their place in the universe. Thanks to her star-crossed parents Marko and Alana, newborn baby Hazel has already survived lethal assassins, rampaging armies, and horrific monsters, but in the cold vastness of outer space, the little girl encounters her strangest adventure yet... grandparents.

I'm back here with another review and the turn, this time, is to SAGA and the next two volumes 

If you haven´t checked before my volume I review, you can do it here: SAGA vol. I

Now, going into this review, I have to say that if the first one made me fall in love with the story, these have made me adore the story. The comic shows you the hard part of life, the things people deal with after a long war, the loss of people and humanity that leaves...in other levels shows the difficult part of dealing with a heartbroken or with a newborn baby in your life. Saga has romance on it but also politic schemes, violence, revenge and cruel sides of life such as children slavery. All that makes these comics suitable for adults. 

New and old characters will appear and our lovely family carries on with the adventure of finding a place in the universe where their love is possible. Also, we still having the humour and some sad moments as we will loose some character on the way. The artwork is so beautiful in all the pages and the characters are so awesome. In these volumes, we will learn more about Alana´s life, how Marko and Alana meet and how they fall in love with a book and with each other. 

As I have said before, if you haven't read Saga yet I highly recommend you to start to.

RESEÑA: Saga: volume I

COMIC - SCI-FI/FANTASY - BRIAN K. VAUGHAN - IMAGE COMICS  

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.
