Brian K. Vaughan & Fiona Staples' Saga Returns (Again) In July 2024

Brian K. Vaughan & Fiona Staples' Saga returns from Image Comics (again) in July 2024, ahead of the new YA-style collections.

As revealed in Bleeding Cool's listing of Image Comics' new solicits and solicitations, Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples' Saga returns from Image in July 2024. Saga initially paused at its half way point back in 2018 with Saga #54, before #55 was published in January 2022. It ran monthly until May 2022, skipped a month to July, and then jumped again to January 2023. It then ran up to September last year with Saga #66. And then nothing since,

But it looks like Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples' Saga will return in July, just after San Diego Comic-Con, but what's the betting they'll have copies at the show?

Retail: $3.99 In-Store Date: 7/31/2024

This will also come ahead of Image Comics republishing Saga by Brian K Vaughan and Fiona Staples in a six inch by nine inch format beginning in September, with new cover art by Fiona Staples, aimed at the YA bookstore market, in a format that has proved successful for graphic novels from other publishers.  The series will still remain available in single issue, standard trim size trade paperback, deluxe hardcover, digital versions, and  compendium trade paperback editions. So expect a whole new audience to get outraged by the sex scenes and the dragon penis all over again. Or at least activist parents and politicians. Saga, Vol. 1 paperback edition 6×9 will be published from Tuesday, the 24th of September.
