    The Saga of Saga

    The Saga of Saga

    In which we discuss the much-discussed Saga by Brian K Vaughn and Fiona Staples!  We delve a teensy bit in to the backgrounds of the creators and what they've done otherwise.  We also discuss what we like (or maybe don't like) about the series.

    Episode V is live, baby!  We're still working on how we put together the show.  I think it'll depend on the topic.  Shows that are run-based will likely focus more on creator bios or maybe just behind-the-scenes stuff on the run.  Shows that focus on a broader character treatment will probably be lighter on that stuff with maybe a few references tossed in for a bit of spice.  We're also working on diversifying our content.  It won't always be Marvel/DC as you can see from this episode!  Anyway, please leave a rating and comment on whichever service you downloaded your episode from.  If you want to find us on Facebook or Twitter, the links are below.  Feel free to get a hold of us there!
