4.5

As an immersive arc about war, this story works really well. Fiona Staples' art is on point even if Vaughan can't make it through a volume without adding "-tard" to something. Also, the use of pig Latin was stupid and out of place. At least the Trans character's storyline wasn't about being trans this time. 

Definitely feels like a Saga now, more than 40 issues in.
