Boy, it sure is a saga to get a new issue out of this series.  The Will's sister is still the best character.

Starsnostars posted:Everytime The Stalk shows up in a flashback or a hallucination I get sad that she was killed off so early on. She was such a cool character and the early gut punch of her death gets worse as we learn more about her. Yeah, a part of me seems to be holding out a faint hope that she'll come back for real....but, I don't think this is that kind of comic. I knew what this was going to be and absolutely should not have clicked it just before hopping out of the car to clock in this morning.

He's so adorable. Also, in my mind I can't not hear him as Ian McShane and it's hilarious.

Starting to see how SAGA would make a really good high budget tv show these days for sure.

Anyone else notice that the sword and shield Marko had on the last page were the same ones hanging on the wall in Ginny's house?

I never noticed that Sophie cat is referring to LC's color. Both panels are amazing though. The sweet one made me cry, and the badass one made me throw my arms up in the air in glee.

As Archie Nears 75, Riverdale Gets a Youthful InfusionTimes Article posted:To keep Archie fresh, new talent was sought, including Lena Dunham, who will bring her feminist take to a four-part story in 2015. Mark Waid and Fiona Staples, two comic book veterans, will be the new creative team for the Archie comic.

I'm always impressed by all the weird, interesting things the Archie comics seem willing to do. I mean, yeah, you see the same boring old done-to-death stuff in the Archie Double Digests that you see while standing in line at Wal-Mart, but then they go and do crazy poo poo like Afterlife With Archie or hiring the creative team behind Graphic Sex and Childbirth: The Comic.

Afterlife with Archie is actually really good, and I say this as someone who hasn't read any Archie stuff since I stopped the Archie digests when I was ten or so. On the other hand, there's no way I'm going to read anything Lena Dunham does.

Question for anyone with the hardcover, is it worth getting instead of the trades? Price is roughly equal on Canadian amazon.

Dacap posted:Question for anyone with the hardcover, is it worth getting instead of the trades? Price is roughly equal on Canadian amazon. I read the trades and own the hardcover. Hardcover is slightly oversized which is nice, but the printing and paper quality on both is great. My biggest complaint is that the hardcover doesn't include all of the sketches that are in the back of the trades, like the adorable Ghüs and Rumfer con sketches in Vol. 3. There are some sketches in the back of the HC that I think are unique to it but none of them really stood out. The only other special feature is the "Making of Saga" walkthrough and full issue script which is kind of whatever, it doesn't add much to the book for me. But I still bought it because it was a great price for a really nice looking and not-too-thick hardcover. The art is my favorite thing about Saga so the bigger pages just slightly pushed me toward that choice. But it's mostly about the binding type you prefer in your hands or on your shelf.

Three thoughts regarding #25: 1) I'm pretty sure my gut dropped just as hard upon reading "and it would be years before the two of us would see each other again" as it did at the last page of Issue 19. And there isn't any wiggle space to avoid this one being as crushing as it sounds. 2) I was sure the blond guy in the "Others were merely looking for adventure" panel was Gale, but the wings don't match, so I guess I was wrong. I don't know why, but I miss that smug bastard. 3) The Revolution is just another reminder that Saga is one of the best books for fascinating and original character designs.

Man, I usually follow series in collected volumes rather than issue to issue, but I can't imagine living without out the thrill of tearing through and then rereading each issue of this series as it comes.RandallODim posted:Of course, that must be it.

What's sort of tragic is that it really seemed like Prince Robot was going to have a change of heart. I feel like there is another way things could have gone down in which Prince Robot would have been a champion for people like Dengo.

Really, creating a character like Ghus feels like cheating. All of the characters are too good, it just isn't right.

Beginning to think that many of the characters may be suffering from a slight lack of structure in their lives. Just a little.

Over in ADTRW we are doing a "cultural" exchange so to speak and recommending comic books. I posted about Saga but the Saga discussion has picked up. I posted a link to the scene with Sophie and Lying Cat...here is the response (from the anime forum no less) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3701793&pagenumber=3#post442419432

You have to just read it to get how amazing it is. I don't even know how to sell it to people because "starcrossed lovers in space" just doesn't sound all that interesting. It's just a matter of everything coming together so well.
