Why I Bought It
Because Saga is one of the best books BKV has written.

What I Liked
This book continues the trend of making a comic that is aimed at adults. Read the solicitation and then read the comic. I am seriously surprised that BKV can take a subject matter such as being the last man on earth or being on a planet full of things that want to please your sexual desire and present them in such a way that treats its audience with respect and treats the subject matter with adult seriousness.

This is something that could easily be made into a porn setup. Easily. But if it did that, it would take away everything about the comic.

The characters in here are both presented in a good light and a bad light. None of them are perfect, but all of them are trying to be right with who they are and deal with the world around them.

What I Didn't Like
honestly there wasn't much that I could find as being wrong or feeling like it was out of place. Every panel counted and everything fit right into place.

Panel to Remember
The opening panel. Two giant heads on top of long legs saying "Welcome to Sextillion." Grabs you right from the word go.

Quotable
"Forgive me if I don't take relationship advice from a dead teenager missing her vagina."
