Peter DeFelice of Pyramid Comics and Cards in Sparta, New Jersey comments on the controversy of Saga #12 not being available via iTunes (see "Apple Bans 'Saga' #12 From iOS Apps").
 
I am all for creator rights and I hate the idea of censorship but the images in Saga #12 are graphic in nature and have nothing to do with the story.  This is not about gay sex or if it is right or wrong.  This is about oral sex, that is shown (not implied) and the ejaculation on another man's face that is also shown.  There is no warning on the book about its graphic nature or in its solicitation for sale from Image Comics.  This is the type of book that would get me as a comic book retailer sent to jail and calling the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund to bail me out.
