page from East of West #11

Hickman and Dragotta reunited soon after their phenomenal Fantastic Four run to give us this Sci-Fi Western set in a alternate reality fractured dystopian United States where the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are the world’s only hope. It’s honestly just such a cool world to dive into and learn about.

Would recommend to sci-fi fans, comic fans, and those that just love world building.

A few of the major powers in the world:

The Union

The Endless Nation

The Kingdom

The People's Republic of America

    The comic itself certainly has some flaws. But the world, the history, the art, and the mythos were so compelling

      I loved the worldbuilding, but fell off pretty quickly when I realized the characters weren’t going to get interesting.
