Saga

Saga is an ongoing comic that started in 2012. It has been described as “Star Wars meets Game of Thrones” and is said to evoke science fiction and fantasy works like The Lord of the Rings and classic works like Romeo and Juliet.

It is a combination of the amazing writing of Brian K. Vaughan, spectacular art by Fiona Staples, extremely varied weird and wonderful characters, some incredibly intense emotion and some truly hilarious and deeply thought-provoking moments.

It’s the kind of comic that would translate brilliantly to the big screen. There’s such a rich back catalogue of material from the near-four years Saga has been running that it has the potential to be a brilliant series of soap opera movies – something Guardians of the Galaxy proved can still be massively successful (and something Star Wars is set to further prove in the coming weeks).
