But there are quite a few outspoken youngsters around today. Such as that of Saga #20… on the arrival of a babysitter. And even C.O.W.L #2 isn't immune Kids today, eh? No manners, I can't tell the demon possessed from the unpossessed these days. Revival understands the internet and its demands completely One day, so will I. I[...]

Today's Saga #20 is lovely A beautiful book full of irresponsible parents, angry children, massacres, dancing and copious drugs taking What's not to love? But in the back, Brian K Vaughan raises a spectre to come… He tells how his early conversations with Robert Kirkman about the publication of Saga included that if the comic reached issue 25,[...]

From today's Chew/Revival crossover… an interesting flipbook that has two separate crossovers between the cast of each book, in their own separate and contradicting continuities. But on the Revival side we also get meta commentary on the whole situation and a new unexpected crossover between Chew's Poyo and Saga's Lying Cat The way it should be. Exactly…   [...]

Its second printing will be of 1500. And while Saga #19 doesn't often get a second print, the three month gap between issues and certain… content matters saw Image go to a second print pretty much instantly.     Weird Love #1 from IDW and Yoe! Books has sold out of its 5900 print run, based on initial[...]

By Julz Hendricks Comic fans have anxiously been waiting to get their Saga fix, and boy did we get it! The first page was in your face, bold and racy, everything that is Saga In case you are new to the series, Bleeding Cool censored first panel (due to online decency guidelines) Nothing is off limits[...]

#saga — Jordan (@Jrdnw) May 22, 2014   Welcome back into my life #Saga you brilliantly deranged piece of genius That first page spread made the wait completely worth it — Tony Hipwell (@HIPsince1980) May 22, 2014   It took me a second to realize what was happening on the first page of Saga #19 But after I did, it[...]

Because there is plenty to go around… Both imaginary, from Uncanny X-Men... And real! From the dangerous of Amazing Spider-Man… To the dangerous and elderly of Harley Quinn… To the protective of Solar #2… The staged of Saga… The classic of Velvet… The tender of Prophet… Sometimes it's nice to just celebrate a kiss, whatever the reason[...]

The Deadpool annual where Wade and Spidey change costumes worked for me, and probably will for most Deadpool fans. Over at Image we have a new start for Saga, and a non-spoiler time jump Invincible was a new start with all the element that make up the book's DNA Betrayal and graphic violence while somehow seeming[...]

He created a densely populated future universe and gave Spider Jerusalem some of the greatest expressions of mad brilliance ever put onto a page. Saga vol 1 There are books that are so obviously and consistently praised that you can forgive comic book fans their cynicism when they roll their eyes at their mention Saga by Brian[...]

 However the more I see "regular" people looking to pick up a volume of the Walking Dead, or Saga I think we're continuing to make converts  I really do believe the most interesting ideas are coming from comics right now.  I don't think its coincidence that Once Upon A Time and Grimm are post Bill Willingham's Fables.  It's just another example of how[...]

Vaughn, the writer behind Y: The Last Man, and more recently Saga, poses a different counter balance to war An idea universally present in war is inflicting pain, to do so for homeland, family, and even a way of life These motivations exist as justifications but war does not bring about democracy, freedom, or independence[...]

There was one thing I did set out to "find" on my own and hoped I'd manage, something from Fiona Staples (Saga from Image) the honored guest of MoCCA Fest It was the tail end of the show, and I figured she would probably be sold out of anything brought to the show, or perhaps[...]

I'll try not to hold it against her that she's younger than me and instead hope that it means she's got many years of great comics work to come. Fiona Staples People that know me (and people that just know about comics) have asked me why I haven't featured Saga in any of my columns yet[...]

Saga, last week's big winner, remains at numero uno in Australia, sits in the top three in the United States and Canada, but falls to number 5 in Mexico The Walking Dead, interestingly enough, has all but disappeared from the charts in Mexico, but fell as low as number 10 in United States. The charts across[...]

Timothy Carson writes: The Walking Dead and Saga make for excellent tango partners, nimbly keeping pace with one another's dance steps; this week, though, it looks like The Walking Dead may have been dipped a little too low and was subsequently dropped by Saga (I think it may have been on purpose.)
