It's extremely difficult to rate the individual chapters, therefore the following is a review of the fifth volume. In other words, chapters twenty-five through thirty.


Saga volume five gives us chapters twenty-five to thirty, and I desperately need volume six. That ending, gosh does it have me desperate to see what comes next. The issue? The library does not have volume six, meaning it may take me a while to get my hands on it. It’s typical really, the moment I find myself completely hooked, happy to read the volumes back-to-back, I reach the point where I have no more to read.

Fear not, however, as I will be continuing. I’m addicted now, and I’m desperate for more of the goodness I’ve fallen in love with.

In fact, I’m willing to label volume five my favourite of the series thus far. Everything I’ve enjoyed so much about the prior volumes was amplified, yet again, ensuring I powered through this one in no time at all. I continued to fall ever deep in love with the characters, the storyline continued to develop in wonderful ways, things are insanely weird, the humour was on point, and the emotional abuse has me invested to an unexpected degree.

Honestly, this is a series that is more than worth reading.

This issue really brought it back to what I love most about Saga, stunning character portraits, internal conflict over how to react to a damaged world, the most beautiful artwork.

Okay well this issue was definitely back to being the awesome and wonderful quality that I tend to expect and enjoy from Saga. The last issue was awesome too, but this one certainly has some very trippy moments which I both enjoyed and winced over at the same time!

As always the artwork in this series is beautiful and I think that the front cover is one of my favourites from all of the series. The black background with our main character on the cover is really cute and stand out. I also love the moon and Marko on the cover!

Basically if you haven't yet picked up this issue then do it :) It's awesome and top-notch on both the story, characters and artwork!

My absolute favorite part of reading new issues of Saga is turning the cover and seeing the first page. I swear, each issue Fiona Staples and BKV manage to shock, awe, and amaze me. This issue is no exception.
