    That’s an interesting connection, because I’m not sure I see much similarity in the art, but there’s definitely thematic and color similarity.

    To me, Saga and Fiona Staples take the absurd and gives it a cartoony realism, but Dragotta exaggerates features to the point that it’s almost surreal (almost like crossing Dalí and Mignola)

    But both series have that Star Wars/Firefly “lived-in” universe feel that makes it obvious that there’s a lot of history behind the scenes, and they both have the “space western” vibe, too. Maybe that’s the Image style: fleshed-out world building that leaves a lot to the imagination (in a good way)
