Saga Is Making a Triumphant Return to Our Eyeballs This January

It’s official: Saga is coming again.

You could recall creator duo Brian Okay. Vaughan and Fiona Staples introduced they’d be taking what they referred to as an “intermission” again in 2018. At the time, Vaughan stated, “We plan to pause publication of this series for at least the next year. This obviously wasn’t a decision we took lightly, but Fiona and I feel a responsibility to keep making the very best comic we can, and we both agreed that he only way to eventually finish the epic saga we set out to tell was with this one significant… let’s call it… Intermission!”

Vaughan made the shock return announcement at his panel throughout New York Comic-Con 2021 alongside co-creator Staples, who joined through video chat. The award-winning sci-fi comedian will quickly start the second half of its story that’ll result in its eventual finale. Issue #55 will launch in January 2022, ending the lengthy hiatus, and fittingly kicking off a model new story arc. And even higher, it’ll be a double-length, 44-page difficulty, priced at $2.99. Take a take a look at the model new cowl beneath, which carries a heavy dose of nostalgia for the duvet of the very first difficulty all the way in which again in 2012.

“I can’t think readers and retailers enough for their patience,” stated Vaughan in a press launch. “I think our next 54 issues will be even more shocking, strange, and spectacular than the first 54, so we can’t wait to be back on the shelves at your local comic shop soon.” Staples admitted that she “really missed” connecting with readers, and is worked up to return to Hazel’s world. “The next arc is already going places I never imagined. I’m so grateful that we’re able to keep doing this!”

In case you’ve forgotten, and who might blame you, Saga’s final difficulty earlier than its sabbatical ended with the reveal that Hazel’s father Marko was killed in a struggle towards the Will. But what occurred after that? The cowl signifies that we’ve bought ourselves a time skip, made clear by an older Hazel and Alana. But who’s the ax-wielding fella with them? That’ll have to attend till we’re nearer to the e-book’s return, which a press launch guarantees will probably be “the most epic chapter yet.”

Saga #55 will launch on January 26, 2022.
