I have to wonder what Fiona Staples thinks when she gets her scripts from Vaughan and it says 2 page panel depicting enormous dragon pleasuring itself orally. What is the proper response for that? I just want to be a fly on that wall.

That said, this is the saddest volume of Saga yet. One of my favorite characters dies horrifically and with no warning There's death and angst and sadness and it's just not fair to anyone involved. Will I keep reading it? Of course. It's brilliant, raw storytelling with amazingly beautiful and brutal art. Do I want to punch Brian K. Vaughan in the face? Little bit, yes.
