Collecting the first 18 issues of the smash-hit series, this deluxe hardcover edition features a striking new cover, as well as special extras, including never-before-seen sketches, script pages, and a roundtable discussion with the creators about how SAGA is really made.
Written by Eisner Award-winning "Best Writer" BRIAN K. VAUGHAN (Y: The Last Man, The Private Eye) and drawn by Harvey Award-winning "Best Artist" Fiona Staples (Mystery Society, North 40), SAGA is the story of Hazel, a child born to star-crossed parents from opposite sides of a never-ending galactic war. Now, Hazel's fugitive family must risk everything to find a peaceful future in a harsh universe that values destruction over creation.
Fantasy and science fiction are wed like never before in a sexy, subversive drama for adults that Entertainment Weekly called, "The kind of comic you get when truly talented superstar creators are given the freedom to produce their dream book."

Reviews
A must-read in modern sci-fi
"The first instalment of three books, a must read for sci-fi lovers."
— Cloé G. (5/5)
Great Read Real Page Turner
"I could not put this book down. The Characters are interesting, enchanting and you find yourself getting emotional invested with all of them. Even the ""bad guys"" make you feel for them and the hard ships they have endured. The art by Fiona Staples in incredible beautiful and detailed. Fans of Y the Last Man need to check this book out you will not be disappointed!"
— Sandy (5/5)
Great read, best format available
"Saga is a great example of a comic that is more interested in exploring characters and telling a story than being bogged down in explaining itself or falling into the formulas of other books using the same medium. The cast is full of interesting characters. I'd recommend picking up these hardcover editions rather than the volumes, simply because I personally prefer the format. It does mean you might need to wait a while to catch up though: the newest few volumes have collected the most recent comic releases, but the third book isn't out yet. Now is a good time to read, with a fairly long hiatus between volumes 8 and 9."

I'm hooked!
"I have yet to be disappointed by something Vaughan has been involved with. This actually might be his best work, though."
— Melanie (5/5)
Saga
"Saga is one of the best things to come from Image Comics"
— Kenny (5/5)
Obsessed
"This series is amazing. I bought the first one on a whim and fell in love with it immediately. It's a space epic about two people on opposite sides of a brutal neverending war fighting tooth and nail to keep their young, unorthodox family together. The artwork is gorgeous the story really pulls you in from the get-go."
— CatsandCookies (5/5)
Great Book
"The storytelling is great and the art is awesome, you can't go wrong with this comic."
— Meowsh (4/5)
Absolutely a modern classic; gorgeous art, witty writing, unique universe(s)
"A stunning, epic feat of modern graphic novelry that's fresh and exciting, provocative and insightful, actively feminist and inclusive. The vibrant characters and lush images stick with, in the best ways. As an adult, I look forward to each issue. As a parent, I'd pitch this series at 16+ -ish, for various reasons. What reasons? Why, buy the hardcover Book One (and now, Book Two) and see for yourself!"
— JayJ (5/5)
Get Started on a Modern Classic
"Anyone who claims to enjoy comic books and hasn't read Saga needs to pick up this collection and get started right away. The characters are great, the world is dramatic and varied, and the relationships between the unique family at the center of this tale are believable in a way that hits you right in the feels. There is a fair amount of adult content, including more nudity than I would prefer, but don't let that discourage you from this great story. Just don't buy it for your kids. Or your parents."
— Jordan L. (5/5)
So much love!
"You really can't go wrong with this series. You really can't!"
— Rome (5/5)
