I am going to talk about a comic book series that completely weird. A series that made me stop after finishing an issue, stare at the wall, and say “yepp… what did I just read?” The comic is Saga, written by Brian K. Vaughan and published by Image Comics. First of all, let me say…
Oh man, this one is… damn, this just hits different, you know? The Lost Years is one of those. It’s not like the big, flashy Spider-Man fights or city-destroying villains.
