🎓 Reddit experts on dystopian graphic novels
The comments and opinions expressed on this page are written exclusively by redditors. To provide you with the most relevant data, we sourced opinions from the most knowledgeable Reddit users based the total number of upvotes and downvotes received across comments on subreddits where dystopian graphic novels are discussed. For your reference and for the sake of transparency, here are the specialists whose opinions mattered the most in our ranking.
Deluxe editions are essentially omnibuses split into smaller, really nicely produced books, containing around 300-400 pages each (which is my personal sweet-spot for volume length). Vertigo and Image both put these out. Some contain entire runs in one volume, like The Fade Out, some are multi volume, like The Invisibles. Most of them also contain script pages, character sketches, cover galleries, pitches, and a bunch of other 'special-features' in the back to make them feel a little more special.
Year editions are something Image started doing relatively recently, but I really dig them. They essentialy contain a year's worth of trades in a big hardcover. So far they only have one for East of West, but they look to be releasing more in the next few months. Ody-C is getting one soon, and a bunch of others are yet to be announced.
EDIT - Dark Horse's Library Editions are pretty much Image's Deluxe editions, except they're pretty huge (in terms of dimensions), and are, in my opinion, the best produced books on the market; everything about them, from the binding to the paper stock, feels absolutely luxurious. I've been collecting the Kabuki Library Editions as they've been released and each new one still stuns me a little when it turns up. They're insanely gorgeous.
The Outpost: America. Alternatively learn another language (preferably Russian) and delve into the tens of Universe novels.
Or, if you also happen to be a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. fan, grab the two novels written by Bazals Pataki At least the first one isn't too bad. They're pretty much canon fanfiction until proven otherwise. GSC collaborated with the guy from my knowledge and due to what I said above they're also free.
Oh, Dmitry, Dmitry, when we will be worthy of updates from the Post?
Yea, very much dune. LOL All of Hickman's work is veeeeery inspired by dune and Neil Stephenson's. Cycles series some might say too much :)

$25 used is a steal for this much awesome
East of West (amazon link)? He doesn't ride a horse (he rides something pretty weird), but it could be this. It's one of the few hardcovers that I've seen that is all white; plus I also own it, since it's one of my favorite comics
It exists... Kinda

I have not read it though, so I can't say if it's good or not.
You can grab it on Amazon if your local CBS doesn't have one. It's 500 pages and collects #1-15. It also has 50 pages of extra material, concept art, and the full script for #1. MSRP is $50 but Amazon has it for $32.

Don't forget Glukhovsky has already sort of shown what is happening in parts of the U.S. in 'The Outpost'

Counting The Outpost: America which has turned into an audioseries more than anything.
This is what he has on his shelf for East of West.
