Comic Book Talk

Forgive me if this has been asked in here before.

I missed the comic book train in my youth. I'm thinking I would like to give it an honest try.

I like generally tend to Sci-fi from medieval swords & sorcery and space shenanigans.

Any recommendations for an older novice looking to start from the beginning of a story which isn't already a movie or TV series?

You may want to check out Saga from Brian K. Vaughn and Fiona Staples. Kind of a space opera/fantasy story that's returning soon after a very long break, so you could pick up the trades and have time to catch up on the story.
