This is what I wrote before reading this one:
I'm not even sure I want to read this issue.
We can all imagine what's going to happen, right?
Marko leaving in the middle of the night? Probably going to the only "friend" he has?
Yeah. We all know how that is going to end.
I was SO fucking wrong.
I'm so sorry I ever doubted you Marko.
Also, OMG Vaughan! I freaking hate you! You had me SO worried for 4 freaking issues!

A lot of people who came into my family's life looking like heroes ended up acting more like villains.
I wish I could say the opposite was also true, but that was pretty fucking rare.
I COULDN'T BE MORE IN LOVE WITH THESE COMICS, THEY ARE HILARIOUS.
—How pathetic is that? I need to get blown im half before I realize what a good thing I had?
—I get what you're trying to say, but this is a completely different situation.
—Yeah, life is complicated. But it's also very fucking short. If you find someone who can forgive all your bullshit... the least you can do is try to forgive them.

5 Stars, Buy it
This one is titled Betrayal. I am so reluctant to read this one. Holy crap. There is way too much stuff going on in this one to do a summary without giving spoilers away. Lets just say this issue continues to be amazing. I think I have one more issue before I’m caught up. Again, it will probably be a long wait for another issue to come out. But boy is this an emotional rollercoaster!!

I konačno da priča malo krene!
Bilo je i malo filozofiranja o patnji i indiferenciji drugih na nju - ako vec od prije nisu emocionalo angazirani, odnosno ako ih se osobno ne tiče. Ali i toliki kliseji...
Tako da je opet trojka.

My 2-year-old daughter saw the cover of this issue and exclaimed: “She’s painting!” It is indeed a very cool cover.
The real tragedy, though, is the missing stuffed animal…Ponk Konk!

And what exactly am I supposed to do now? There is no next issue listed and from the looks of it there are going to be at least 20 more issues in the future!

It's extremely difficult to rate the individual chapters, therefore the following is a review of the fourth volume. In other words, chapters nineteen through twenty-four.
Saga volume four gives us chapters nineteen to twenty-four, and it’s pulled the solid four-star rating from me that I knew the series was capable of. In fact, volume four has pushed me into the realm of back-to-back reading. The moment I finished volume four, volume five appeared in my hand.
I’m at the stage where I’m hooked, addicted, and in desperate need of more.
By this point in Saga, I’m in love with all the strange and wonderful things being offered. I’m lost to the universe we’ve been introduced to, I’m desperate for more of the wonderful storylines developing, and I’m overly invested in the characters.
Despite how strange this one is – and I know it will not be for everyone due to this – it’s a story that leaves you desperate for more. Once you start, you cannot stop.
Without a doubt, this is an addiction I’m happy to have.

I repeat, what the hell? The bloody dance continues.
I have always loved comics, and I can, and I have. I love comics to bits; may the comics never leave my side. I loved reading this and love reading more. You should also read what you love, and I hope you will always love it. Even though I grew up reading local Indian comics like Raj Comics, Diamond Comics, or even Manoj Comics, now's the time to catch up on international and classic comics, Mangas, Mahwas, and Graphic novels. I am on my quest to read as many comics as I just want to Keep on Reading.

Absolutamente fantástico este volumen 4, que mezcla varias storylines más y empieza a generar un megafollón que solo podemos intuir. Por un lado la serie baja de vueltas, la familia de Marko y Alana necesita ocultarse y ella consigue trabajo en una especie de telenovela grabada en vivo. Por otro lado, aparecen más contratistas chungos, personajes de todo pelaje (literalmente) y avanzamos, mientras el matrimonio de los protas tiene altos, bajos y profundos, hacia más encontronazos futuros entre varios de los protagonistas, que están convergiendo. Adictivo, fantásticamente dibujado.

Saga #23 – Chapter Twenty-Three
Writer: Brian K. Vaughan
Artist: Fiona Staples
Publisher: Image Comics
Release Date: August 2014
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)
Summary:
Marko’s journey toward redemption leads him into unexpected conflict, while Alana faces the consequences of her choices. Hazel’s world grows smaller as danger draws closer to the camp.
Review:
Momentum builds again. The issue balances personal struggle and external threat with precision. Marko’s arc feels mature and grounded, and the tension quietly escalates toward the inevitable collision of all storylines.

Marko might stayed a couple of hours at Ginny but he didn't take any advances and the one who betrayed them is Yuma (Dr. Heist ex-wife) which sucks. At the end of Saga #23, rocketship forest left Gardenia and Marko is left behind with Prince Robot IV.
