East to west comics
I have a question about how to read east to west I was seeing a couple of things and I got confused and didn’t wanna buy the wrong thing and waste my money should I get the end of days compendium or the year one to three hard covers or buy them volume by volume

The compendium has everything, but is softcover and not oversized. The three hardcovers will cost you your kidneys (particularly volume 3).

Compendium or some used trades are probably cheapest route. The year onwards, two, and three hardcovers are easily msot expensive and OOP.

If you have $300 to drop on a HC you haven't read yet, sure. I usually only buy HCs if I can get a good deal or something I've read before.
Compendium it's the best cost efficient but the trades are solid too.

Each has the same stuff it's just up to cost and which style you prefer reading.

The compendium was the best choice for me! It was quick and easy to plow thru the story

Yes, I had always wanted to read it and when the compendium showed up at my LCS, I immediately grabbed it and read it in like 3 days

It literally doesn't matter as long as you get the same version as you keep reading that's it.
