A review by dark_reader
Saga, Vol. 2 by Brian K. Vaughan
4.0
On my current re-reading of the series for a refresher and catch-up to the latest volumes, I fell out of order with this volume, due to availability at my library. What sruck me on skipping from volume 1 to volume 3 and re-affirmed on reading volume 2 now, is how much of significance happens over the course of a single volume. Deaths, separations, reversals of fortune, narrative time jumps... this series does not waste any time. It also pursues narrative leads without delay, which I enjoy. Other series might take months or years to follow up on a clue or information dropped casually; the fact that Saga does not suggests that the author has a distinct plan for at least the medium-future of the series and that it will not drag on indefinitely.
Also in volume 2, our first giant monster genitalia. I think it's the first anyway? There is so much genitalia in this series it is hard to keep track.
