East of West, Issue #28 and Issue #29 I'm reviewing as one because I've gotten behind in my reviews. East of West is a difficult title to read at times because of its sprawling cast and its shifting allegiances, so look at this review as more of a guide to reading East of West than a simple reading of spoilers (which I try to avoid) and a few nods to the creators. The best way to read East of West is issue-by-issue, even if you're reading the trade paperbacks. Look for overall arcs, but don't expect a volume of East of West to read like a book.
It is End Times. Issue #28 is Death looking for his son, but he's not the only one. Heck, there's so much going on in this issue that I can't really recap it. There's a slight mistake in the discussion of nucleosynthesis on page 22. For the correct information, read here. Issue #29 continues directly from Issue #28 and ends Year Two of the Apocalypse. I suppose there is going to be a break before Issue #30. I do love this title and all its creators, down to my favorite letterer, Rus Wooton.
