Why do we love Saga this much? 
 This question can absolutely never be answered with shitty answers like "the art's damn beautiful" or "the story is great". Sure those are the attributes of this graphic literature by Brian Vaughan and Fiona Staples, but you cannot give justice and won't be able to fully describe how good Saga is with those one-line descriptions. That is how f*ckin great this series is. So if you haven't read it, my god, can you just buy and read it? 
 Volume seven embodies all I love about this comic. There's so many that I might not be able to tell them all, or not in a systematic sort of way, but let me start with saying something that most of us would agree on: Saga's characters are just perfect. Perfect in a way that their imperfections and all that constitute their persona are the ones that drive the story to greatness. A good story cannot be fully realized or appreciated without awesome characters. Characters who are human, both brave and cowards, flawed yet they try to be who they aspire to be. Marko, Alana and the group aspires to be a family (with a tranny horn, a ghoul and a droid) despite their differences. The Will dreams (literally) of his past so that he can think about his future. Gwen aspires to make the galaxy to be a bit better places despite the horror of her actions. 
 Their voices may ring of happiness and quips, but ultimately, you'd feel a tone of loneliness, almost lost in the vastness of space. 
 All these characters have voices, and if you hear them in the wonderfully constructed words in the bubbles, you'd hear them so loud yet so distant in the vastness of space. Their voices may ring of happiness and quips, but ultimately, you'd feel a tone of loneliness. F*ck, even L.C. has feelings! 
 Brian Vaughan lashes out his own political views about themes like war, spiritualism and the blind following to religion, the savagery and self-righteousness of those who are in power, terrorism and sexuality. I didn't buy those things in his Ex Machina but I did here in Saga. Again it is in the characters, in their point of view and in those little conversations that those views become very personal and very endearing, and before realize it, these themes are already inside your system. 
 Fiona Staples has never been this good. Her illustrations have a perfect mix of ruggedness and love that it gives Saga its visual tone. I mean, that issue #37 cover alone is perfection perfected. I love the nuances in the emotions of the faces she draws. The sense of wonderment in these pages has been effectively conveyed by the illustrations. 
 The only (very minuscule) disappointment I have with this volume is that I was expecting to see a bit of skirmishes, since after all this arc is The War for Phang. To those of you who haven't read this book, don't expect a battlefield. Nonetheless you will be thoroughly entertained as I did. Even cried a little at the end. Oh yeah, this is really not spoiler because it is a common thing in Saga, but yeah, something happens. Haha, damn you Brian K. Vaughan! Thank you too.
