There's a frog playing drums, an alien on guitar, and a humanoid creature with a television for a head on vocals on the cover of Saga's Issue 58.

It's a collection of characters that's par for the course for the award-winning science fiction epic, which pretty quickly amassed a legion of fans after its first issue in 2012. Then, in 2018, creators Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples announced their saga would be going on hiatus.

Their series returned this year, in February, and Vaughan was ready to get started.

"I can't stop thinking about it," he said. "I think most of my hiatus was really spent still focused on Saga and sort of plotting out the next several years of these character's adventures."

If you call running for your life while dangerous assassins shoot lasers at you "adventures."
