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
pages from East of West: The World
Hickman is one of my favourite writers, easily!
1st: Black Monday Murders (not sci fi but so so good, I love occult stuff like this)
2nd: Decorum
4th=: Manhatten Projects and East of West
Given the success of Oppenheimer I’m surprised Manhattan Projects isn’t getting more love. I’d love a second volume of Decorum but you have to be patient with Hickman haha
Black Monday Murders is great - Mammon is my wallpaper at work, lol. But it needs more, sort of dropped off in the middle!
