Star Wars meets Game of Thrones? Did we read the same comic?

Did anyone buy the Prophet (digital) trade? Can you confirm whether or not it has the back-ups?

I'm starting to get frustrated by all these comics starting in the middle. I know it's an attempt at fresh storytelling but it feels more like a way to try and get you on the hook for the first arc before you can actually decide if you enjoy it or not.

If Prophet doesn't stick the landing it will be a disaster.

Scott Pilgrim is okay, but I want to uppercut anyone who says "Chau Down!" 5 years later.

Should probably bump this, ton of huge announcements today, I wasn't able to keep up with them all.

Brubaker/Phillips wrapping Fatale at 24, on to a new series. Fraction launching more Casanova with Moon, back ups by Michael Chabon and Ba. Kelly Sue DeConnick launching Planet Bitch and announced more Pretty Deadly. New series by Remender I think. Morrison and Burnham doing a horror comic called Nameless I think? Jock and Scott Snyder doing a horror comic as well.

Check your local comic site for all the deets.

Maybe I was wrong, I thought I read somewhere that there would be a different artist.

I'm still reading Manhattan Projects but I stopped understanding what the gently caress is going on like, 8 issues ago. Maybe 10. Is there any blog or review site or wiki that has issue-by-issue synopses? :psyduck: (I just finished number 18 and have no loving clue what happened)

I'll give it a stab:



Manhattan Projects is assembled, a long the way they rebel against the government illuminati and win the rebellion essentially taking over the government and wiping out some aliens. They invest in three projects, one if I recall is the colonize space, one is to promote human growth and I forget what the third one is. Oppenheimer, having been replaced by his twin brother, betrays the group and leads a coup that has resulted in a Colonel Kurtz level dude now taking over the project.

Side plots along the way: The Martian is actually a spy who betrays the team. Oppenheimer won the internal battle against his brother, only to be then murdered(?) by a time traveling Einstein. The original general is now allying with the Kurtz team, betraying the project.



Help?

I read it this morning and the whole thing is just "fuuuuuuuuck"

Sadly all it made me think was, "Is this book over yet?"

I can't see six issues wrapping up everything. I think they've taken the year so they can complete 12 or 18 issues then publish the last stretch without breaks.

For some reason I thought I remembered the letter page saying that this only like halfway or something.

Yeah Vaughn has said he wants the series to be long since it's called "Saga".

Unfortunately he doesn't want it to be good.

Probably trying to get a few arcs in the can since they could never make schedule when it was active.
