After six previous volumes, I had come to expect that this series piqued. It had maintained such a visceral story with incredibly developed and memorable characters for so long that I had expected it to start fizzling out fairly quickly. Well, it hasn't. 
 Saga Vol. 7 has just as much humor, imagination, and pathos as any other entry into this series, all while maintaining great diversity and some nice, subtle satire. My only real complaint is this volume does feel a bit like filler. It doesn't set up too much, finding itself more at home meandering. But after the whirlwind that was volume six, I can't be too mad. This volume still manages to deliver a surprising number of emotional punches. Glad to see it is still going strong.
