25 years ago a bunch of Marvel artists left the Big Two and decided to form their company, with blackjack and hookers. This company would eventually become the closest to a third competitor for DC and Marvel (lol) and the best known creator-owned comic book company out there.
For our final week, we'll be looking at modern Image, an age of superstar writers, popular artists, and... movie/TV pitches?
Next up is, well, the only Image Hickman comic to have a consistent release schedule, Jonathan Hickman and Nick Dragotta's East of West

This is an okay one. I really like the concept and the world but it drags out at times.
Good by Hickman standards anyway.

Thanks
I dropped this around issue 21 and was just waiting for the hardcovers to come out. Who's dead so far and is based Chamberlain still alive?

Thread doesn't even need bumps but I'm going to bump anyway because I love this series so fucking much.

Thanks, Anons.
Something just came up so I'll have to take a break here.

The original Saint of Killers is a lot more interesting than this cheap knockoff.
>>90188458
>wah wah muh original idea about a super killer guy

where did the hickman hate meme come from. Hickman's avengers was awesome
So I'm enjoying the artstyle and I like the alternate history idea, but man is it being vague about things. I'm not gonna fault it that in its first arc, but do things start coalescing more after this section?
>>90190275
Fuck yeah they do. One of the things I like about East of West is the series of payoffs that all of this early stuff sets up.
>>90190607
Thank Christ. I was worried we'd be left vague on everything. I can live with asshole Death, as long as it explains his origins a bit or at least why he feels murdering nearly fucking everybody is strictly necessary.

Hahaha oh man. Oh man.
You fuckin watch this. You watch what happens.

Really digging this - if I get around to collecting this should I grab the trades or the hardcovers? HC seems to be more expensive than just buying the individual trades.
>>90191268
Bro that's a question only you can answer. What sort of input were you expecting from us?
>>90189627
Secret Wars was a letdown so most people here resent all of the build up from Hickman's Avengers run.
Hickman's Fantastic Four, now that's some good capeshit.
Alright, let's continue. Sorry for the wait.
>>90191268
Depends on what you like honestly. Do you like fancy stuff like HCs or don't really care for that kind of things, do you prefer reading through softcovers or don't mind hardcovers?
Me, I prefer TPBs because I find them more comfortable to read through and don't really care about having a "fancy" collection but that's just me
