Romeo und Julia trifft auf Star Wars: SAGA kommt! Der nächste Comic-Hit aus den USA nach THE WALKING DEAD landet diesen Sommer in Deutschland. SAGA erzählt die Geschichte eines jungen, naiven Paares, das sein erstes Kind bekommt … und zwar eins, mit zwei kleinen Hörnern und Flügeln!

In SAGA geht es um die frischgebackenen Eltern Alana und Marko, die mit ihrer neugeborenen Tochter dem jahrzehntewährenden Krieg entkommen wollen, von dem der Rest der Galaxis besessen zu sein scheint. Beide stammen von verschiedenen Spezies ab und sind Soldaten der jeweils gegnerischen Fraktion und doch kämpfen die zwei Liebenden mit allem was sie haben gegen das System und für das Überleben ihrer Tochter, die den politischen Führern beider Seiten ein Dorn im Auge ist.
