Slade's journey of revenge leads him to "Lost Vegas" where he hopes to enlist the help of the deadliest woman in the Western Territories.
I like Alterna. They brought back newsprint comics and they keep all their cover prices on books at $1.50 each. Which just makes these books super affordable in this day and age. Currently, they don't have any ongoing series. Everything they publish is creator-owned and either a mini-series or a maxi-series (12 issue limited). Go West is a splendid example of that. This first outing is a three issue run. If you're looking for a more mature story then look no further than Go West #2 on shelves now. Get yours today! Read Full Review
Saint Yak has created such powerful imagery in GO WEST and has essentially doubled this book's value on top of Gunn's fascinating (and quite possibly prophetic) saga. After reading a mere two issues, you get the sense that Garrett Gunn and The Saint Yak are headed for greatness.

Overall, the story has improved, but the pacing feels kind of stunted. For the price though, this is a pretty dang good deal. The art is solid; a couple of characters are worth rooting for with one potential badass who gets increasingly badass as the story goes and a girl who is instantly badass as soon as she enters. I almost wish this was her story instead because I really like her. This review should really be subtitled "in which the word badass is repeatedly used" because that's the most fitting word for what Lily is and what Slade the Blade was in his past and has the potential to be should the writers turn him loose at just the right moment. Issue #2 is an improvement, but two months is a while to wait so let's hope the wait is worth it. Read Full Review
