Lore cannot be told through comic books
Both comics were made to tell us one thing
Fall of osiris was made to show us why osiris was exliled and warmind was made to show us ana was lesbian.
The problem is that both comics ended up with alot of filler and unnecessary bullshit (saint 14 vs osiris for example)
You dont need 30 pages to show us anas lesbian and you dont need 20 pages to show us why osiris was exiled and the comics showed that
Its much easier just to write more grimoire, 1 paragraph is all it takes to tell us anas gay and a 1 card is all it takes to tell us why osiris was exiled
Writing comics is just a waste of time and resources

Each one of them was completely awesome and added to the lore and/or filled in bits of story a fan craved. I read/watched each before ultimately leaving the franchise behind. Destiny has a very, very deep lore...and yet not a single novel, comic (PRINTED comic of quality), animated short or what have you. The live-action commercials, maybe... But I don't get why they squander such an awesome property with these little mini web comics. The itty bit that showed Ana during the 'Gap was completely badass...for one panel 😑 I feel like they could easily repeat their(financial 😆) success if they would put out EU content. A book detailing Ikora's crucible glory and her decision to leave it? I'd buy the hell out of it. Cayde's tragic story and result in becoming an exo? Shut up and take my money! A detailed comic about Zavala heroically battling mountains of ridiculous field reports? I'm sold! But not a single noteworthy bit. The comics they've put out online have been meh at best and downright disappointing at worst. Tl/dr; where is the Destiny EU?
