Grab this while its still on sale. I wish i could've got this for $2 but bought every comic as it came out (which this is the only series i have done that for). All of this is because East of West has got to be the best comic book released in the recent years. I'm not kidding its that good. The art, plot, characters and symbolism are all just so on point.

Great art, great story, great characters. I love the action. The wild West meets sci-fi meets biblical apocalypse meets political intrigue story sounds to busy but it's works really well. I read this TPB and was hooked, had to buy the next two as well. Now I'm stuck waiting on the edge of my seat for the next volume. Great book. Don't pass it up.

Very clean art, slightly reminiscent of the Luna bros. Interesting world-building with a slow, and thus far incomplete, reveal. It's not spoon fed to you so let your imagination run a bit until something begins to form. Just make sure to not pay too mulch attention to the awkward bits. They can throw you but I've come to expect them from hickman so I notice them but no more than that.
