Graphic Novel: Image Comics Saga Box Set: Volumes 1-9 $75.22

Description:

Not as good as the deal, but a decently solid price for this set; Saga is a great story (adult themes, please don't buy this for your kids!), well worth it at this price. One note: the box appears to be poorly constructed at the seams; several reviews mentioned it and mine also came with a couple of bad seams on the bottom. I removed the contents and used wood glue to fix it, since I think all of them are likely to have this issue; caveat emptor and just be careful. The books are totally fine, and after all that's what you're really buying here.About the series:"Saga is an epic space opera/fantasy comic book series created by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Fiona Staples, published monthly by Image Comics. The series is heavily influenced by Star Wars, and based on ideas Vaughan conceived both as a child and as a parent. It depicts two lovers from long-warring extraterrestrial races, Alana and Marko, fleeing authorities from both sides of a galactic war as they struggle to care for their newborn daughter, Hazel, who occasionally narrates the series."From the listing:"BRIAN K. VAUGHAN and FIONA STAPLES have been hard at work on the second half of Hazel's epic journey. Exciting news is coming, and anyone looking for a cool new way to catch up on the Eisner Award-winning series can look no further than this gorgeous box set, collecting all nine of the bestselling trade paperback collections in one affordable package. This is THE perfect way for any "mature readers" who haven't yet tried SAGA to dip their toes into this weirdly wonderful universe.Collects SAGA VOL. 1-9 trade paperback with a set of 6 x 9 cover prints exclusive to the box set!"
