Ain’t no way to be prepared when Death comes knocking. This gun slingin’ motif is central to Jonathan Hickman and Nick Dragotta‘s East of West. In East of West #3, the sci-fi western, dystopian future brings forth an abundance of revelation and makes it clear that a reckoning is a brewin’.

Seeking revenge and bringing “himself” as punishment to those who betrayed him and murdered his wife, Death has just learned that his beloved is in fact alive, hidden, and under constant watch by the House of Mao. With his two powerful native witch acquaintances, Death adds to his already fearsome brood and forges a new mysterious alliance. Death is out for blood and will tear apart the world to get what he desires; but it won’t be easy. Conquest, War, and Famine “” the other Horsemen of the Apocalypse “” are on his trail, bringing along with them “The Message” deliverers known as The Chosen while leaving behind a dastardly destructive path.

Each and every week, I, “Call Me Snow Job” Henchman21, read a lot of comics. Seriously you guys, a lot of comics. Maybe too many comics. I mean, it is possible”¦ theoretically. Naturally, I look forward to some more than others. I mean, who doesn’t? So, let’s take a look into the depths of my pull list, grab some comics, and I’ll let YOU know what the top books to look forward to are for the week of March 27, 2013.

I know, I know, it’s been a few weeks and once again I must apologize. Your humble list maker has been derelict in his duties (heh, duties), but we’re going to push through and bring you a solid line up of books for this week. We’ve got a new series by one of comics’ best writers, an issue from last week that I hope you didn’t miss out on, and some of my personal favorites. So let’s get down to brass ticky tacks and dive head first into The GoD List!

I’m going to need to program Thanos into my spell checker since it looks like I’m going to be typing his name a lot over the next few years. Marvel Comics bad guy Thanos has already shown up in the pages of Avengers Assemble, and will soon have his own miniseries titled Thanos Rising, and he will also be featured in Marvel’s 2013 Free Comic Book Day offering.

Titled Free Comic Book Day 2013: Infinity, the issue will be written by Jonathan Hickman (Avengers, Manhattan Projects) with art by Jim Cheung (Avengers: Children’s Crusade). The story will feature the start to the next big Marvel event, as well as having a sneak peak at said event and a reprint of Thanos’ first solo story.

Check out the cover below and you can pick up the issue, as well as many other free issues from almost every other comic publisher, by heading down to your local comic store on May 4th, 2013 for Free Comic Book Day.
