Saga, Vol. 9

AAAAAAAAAAGHHHH
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SCREW YOU, BRIAN K. VAUGHAN, HOW COULD YOUUUUUUUU
I'VE BEEN LOVING THESE CHARACTERS SINCE 2013
WHYYYYYYYY OH GOD NOOOOOOOOOOO

FIONA STAPLES YOU'RE FINE, THE ART IS ALWAYS GORGEOUS
EVEN IF THE STORY TAKES A TURN
AAAGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Fwiw, I read issues 49-54, which will become Vol. 9 (this), which comes out in Oct 2018?

Anyway. GODDAMNNNNNN.

I've been reading Saga since 2013. Sometimes with months- or even year-long gaps in between issues and volumes. Sometimes the plot meanders. It's always gorgeous and inventive and the dialogue is always fun. I LOLed in these issues (until I was wracked by gasps and sobs). But sometimes the plot wanders. Sometimes, though (especially in the beginning), my dudes, it is a FREIGHT TRAIN.

AND BOYO TODAY I GOT SLAMMED BY THE FREIGHT TRAIN
