"Its been a while since I read this series, but I remember it being pretty good. Cullen Bunn is a good enough writer that I will check out series in genres I wouldn't normally read."
Lucky Devil
Lucky DevilCullen Bunn, script; Fran Galán, art; El Torres, lettersDark Horse Books, 2022Cullen Bunn is incredibly prolific.

Saga Volume TenBrian K. Vaughan, writer; Fiona Staples, artistImage Comics, 2022Saga finally returns after a long hiatus. The storytellers have not lost a step, but I confess that it had been so long that I completely forgot about Marko's murder at the hands of The Will at the conclusion of the previous collection.
