Someone died. Well, come to think of it, I think there were two people that died.

Pssssshh. I hate it. I wish they didn't kill one of them because I grew sort of an attachment to the guy. That Gwendolyn person is the one that needs to die.

OH SHIT..

The hell has OFFICIALYY broke down ..

What the fuck did i just read ... oh my god ..

First the prince attacked on the author,

the Klara came for the rescue, prince shot klara,

But author fired the gun that shut the prince,

But then Gwendonyl came and killed the author,

on which Klara attacked on gwendonyl, so cat attacked klara,

AND THE FUCKING PRINCE IS ABOUT TO RE-FUCKING-START.

Yeah. Instead of working, I'm here reading and finishing SAGA No. 17. Yup. It's really addicting. Because the story for both Marko and Alana here were getting dangerous as the series went by.

And lastly...

As per Prince Robot IV said, "Because the opposite of war is.. fucking."

[Nicolo · Rating 5 out of 5]

"The Opposite of War".

This issue pretty much explains the hullabaloo over Prince Robot IV's screen when he was last injured severely in battle.

Also, the last line uttered in this issue pretty much sums up the situation after Prince Robot IV gets everyone in trouble. An appropriate solicitation description when this book was up for pre-order.

Gwendolyn! Stop ruining everything!

My reactions while reading this issue



NOBODY IS SAFE ANYMORE *screams and runs in circles

[Binibining `E (of The Ugly Writers) · Rating 3 out of 5]

Oh no!!! The writer!

[Irene · Rating 4 out of 5]

"The only journalists that deserve killing are sports writers".

I wouldn't go as far as murder but a good spanking never harmed anyone.

Isn't this world the epitome of democracy? Even freelancers have a union and can go on strike. What more do you want people?

Odlična epizoda!
Kako je fino sve isprepleo i zapetljao.

I ona rasprava što je suprotno od rata - nije mir nego... hehe, ova će svakako pomoći pri dizanju ocjene ovog volumea:-)

I'm really starting to hate Gwendolyn.

And yup, the opposite of war totally makes sense.

[Francine · Rating 3 out of 5]

Gwendolyn you fucking bitch

[V · Rating 5 out of 5]

fuckin TV head.........
wtf, Gwen...
the last page tho haha XD

man,... these are so gooooood!

[Colin Post · Rating 4 out of 5]

Deaths in this series are always poignant and never feel gratuitous even if they are grotesque. That said, poor Klara has been through a lot in the space of just a few issues.

I do appreciate how the dramatic encounter delivered in this issue comes several issues after the cliffhanger that concluded the previous arc. Vaughn is a master of pacing throughout the series.

I was wrong. It was a fustercluck.

[Jason · Rating 5 out of 5]

5 Stars

All that I can say is "Oh my fing God" what jus happened?

Things move this story quickly into a new direction...Wow.

I love this series, my first adventure into graphic novels. This edition has some serious game changing action that left me very angry that I do not have the next edition yet...

Simply incredible!

You can't keep a robot prince down.

[Eric · Rating 5 out of 5]

The synopsis is very apropos.

[Steven · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another great Saga episode - exciting, moving and beautifully illustrated.

[Angel · Rating 5 out of 5]

WOW. I am not okay.

[Sasha · Rating 5 out of 5]

Asdkjalksjdah why are these so infernally short?! I don't want to have to wait until next year to find out what happens...

[Leiera Monae · Rating 3 out of 5]

So. . .the opposite of war?? Yeah, didn't see that one coming.

And that ending. . .o_O!!!

Saga #17.

"The Opposite of War".
NICE chapter, shit's finally going down!

[Rachel MacNaught · Rating 5 out of 5]

Five stars for the fact I nearly screamed on the bus. Holy hell that made me mad and sad.
Rivalling Game of Thrones for upsetting deaths.

[Denise · Rating 4 out of 5]

I need more now!

[Suz · Rating 4 out of 5]

Gwendolyn is an emotionally driven, stupid bint. I've thought that since her introduction and my opinion hasn't changed. Who could blame Marko for not wanting her?

[Holly Letson · Rating 3 out of 5]

[Just A Ginger · Rating 5 out of 5]

How rude to come into their house and almost kill those two nice journalists.

& Gwen, what she did to the old man was unforgivable, what a dick.

[Samah (samahcanread_) · Rating 5 out of 5]

In the true worlds of Gwendolyn: fuck
