In the last five years, there's been no comic book series that debuted to higher praise or prolonged fanfare than Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples'
Saga. With BKV's
Runaways set to premiere as a live-action series on Hulu and
a Y: The Last Man television adaptation in the works, his projects are certainly gaining a lot of attention in Hollywood.
That, of course, leads to the inescapable question of when a television or film adaptation of
Saga will occur?
Speaking to Comic Book Resources, Vaughn replied:
"
Maybe when the story is finished? I think Fiona and I are both open to Saga possibly being translated into another medium someday, and we’ve gotten a lot of very flattering offers, but for the moment, we’re just concentrating on trying to make the greatest comic book we can."
Saga has earned BKV and Staples six Eisner Awards (and counting) and seemingly has plenty of fertile ground left to explore in its exceptionally exotic alien world.
After a brief hiatus,
Saga returned to monthly publication with issue 43 hitting retailer shelves yesterday.
