Saga begins withs with the birth of our narrator (literally). Her parents, Marko and Alana comes from opposite sides of an ongoing war. 

The fact they conceived the impossible has put a mark on their backs. So we follow them, half a ghost child and their pursuers (Prince Robot IV, Freelance Assassins and others). One of the Freelance Assassins by the name The Will has a giant Lying Cat that follows him around and it's so comical when it blurts out "LYING" when someone is talking.

Graphic illustrations are incredible and Saga is quite a page-turner. From the looks of it this is volume 1 of 12 and I cannot wait to read the next one.
