Any fans of sci-fi comics here? East of West was such a cool world to delve into. (files.catbox.moe)

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

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

The lore behind the characters i really enjoyed, and a few characters I thought were interesting enough. Its a world Id love to read a really fleshed out wikipedia site on
