And is Berserk any good? It gets good reviews, but how does it compare to Vinland Saga?

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try them for sure.
Going off topic, but it's not like we have anything else to discuss with the long periods in between releases, so following might actually help some people pass those times.
Spoiler:
Other manga series, starting with the best going worse but all still some of the best out there:
For fairly realistic manga's, I mean without magic, transmutations or throwing energy forces etc...
Finished:
Battle Royale and
Rurouni Kenshin
Ongoing: only one stands above Vinland Saga. This is
Vagabond, of which the storytellig and especially the art is just too amazing for words imho. Though Vinland Saga may have the potential to become as good as Vagabond, for know I like it just a little less.
Another one is
Black Lagoon, but the story of this one is in this time and the involves gunfights (maids with guns, nuns with guns etc.
). I first watched the anime (in this case, I think watching the anime actually may be as good as reading the manga) then continued where it ended.
For other great manga's, now involving unreal stuff ...
finished:
Hellsing,
Elfen Lied
ongoing:
Berserk (the
KING of action manga's),
Gantz,
Claymore,
Full Metal Alchemist
So if u want to read something like Vinland Saga but not quite like ... then I'd start with Vagabond.
For Berserk, it is imho the best action manga there ever was and ever will be. Yeah I could go on and on about it, but I guess you better go read it yourself and/or discuss in the berserk section.
I found it very hard to compare Berserk to Vinland Saga ...
So ... Vinlang Saga and Berserk both are great manga's with awsome story and art, but the story and art is also different, so ... just read them both!
