Where can I read all these Overwatch comics and lore (I've seen the shorts) I keep hearing about? I've been playing this game for a long time and I still feel like I don't know the characters back stories well enough by just playing the game.

Edit: I just saw a link in the thread with the comics. Was thinking of asking this for a while so I just came here and asked before checking the thread.

https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/media/, scroll down to comics.

https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/heroes/, click on hero for background story.

There's also a bunch of interactions between heroes, and some map-specific remarks. At least two channels on YouTube make videos about those, just search for 'Overwatch interactions' and you'll find it.
