jmshirtz 's review for:
Saga, Vol. 1
by Brian K. Vaughan
I had a feeling I'd like this book because I'm a fan of [a:Brian K. Vaughan|24514|Brian K. Vaughan|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1204664235p2/24514.jpg], but I had no idea of the storyline when I picked up [b:Saga Vol. 1|15704307|Saga, Vol. 1|Brian K. Vaughan|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1351259514s/15704307.jpg|19113524]. The story of lovers from opposite sides of an endless war is one retold throughout many stories, but it has never been told quite like this.
[b:Saga Vol. 1|15704307|Saga, Vol. 1|Brian K. Vaughan|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1351259514s/15704307.jpg|19113524] tells the story of Marko and Alana, former soldier enemies on the run with their newborn baby girl. Pursued by both sides the two search for a way off-planet and to a new life. With some outside help and a lot of wit they make their way over the surface.
What makes this graphic novel truly special is that it is narrated by the infant! All three family members have strong personalities, un-yielding strength, and a whole lot of humor. [a:Fiona Staples]'s beautiful art lends another dimension to the story by, not only portraying the main characters well, but also lending credence to humanoid robots, creatures of all kinds, and a world at once forbidding and luxurious.
I will be waiting anxiously for [b:Saga Vol. 2|2153736|Excel Saga, Vol. 2 (Excel Saga, #2)|Rikdo Koshi|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1349087944s/2153736.jpg|2159238] to find out what else this makeshift family get themselves into.
