My copy is still in the sealed plastic bag it came in, and I’m not sure at this point what I intend to do with it. I read that it’s going to have several iterations of printings due to demand, and they, too, will contain the codes. The issue contains codes for a game, and so will the rest of the issues in this limited series. I don’t play video games, but I do occasionally grab a hot comic off the shelves, and Batman / Fortnite: Zero Point #1 is selling on eBay for several times the cover price. It’s proven to be more fun than I expected, and now I’ll probably finish this limited series. I never meant to read Black Knight: Curse of the Ebony Blade, but after deciding to give the first issue a try, I couldn’t NOT get this second issue. And now that they can resurrect mutants under most circumstances, well, dying doesn’t seem to matter, which changes everything. It’s not that they aren’t interesting, but there’s almost a coldness to them that feels quite different from X-Men stories from back in the 20 th Century. It seems like every few months we get another title, yet I keep expecting more from the stories. The story, while somewhat intriguing, didn’t grab me enough to elevate it to Cool Comic status, but if you’ve been following the X stories since they relaunched under the auspices of Jonathan Hickman, then most likely you dutifully added it to your pull list.

Last week, Way of X #1 came to a comic shop near you, yet another X-Related title. If you have any comments, please scroll to the bottom of the page to where it says, “Leave a Reply.” And now, Episode 292… Cool Comics Colloquialisms!

And for those who enjoy the additional fun of knowing some of the more important issues in your collection, I recognize each Cool Comic that is listed in Key Collector Comics. And remember, a comic book is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. But to simplify it, that’s the scale I use here. Some are probably better, and some are certainly worse. This is according to the websites (CBR) and Zap-Kapow Comics (ZKC), using the comic book grading scale of 9.4 (if both sites have the same price, you’ll find just one price for that issue), along with the 50 th Edition of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide (OPG) using their 9.2 NM scale. I hope you have as much fun reading about them as I had writing about these cool comics!įor each of the comic books I include here, I list the current secondary market pricing (except for of digital issues, which don’t have collectible value). Welcome to Cool Comics in My Collection Episode 292, where we look at various comic books I own (and in some cases ones that I let get away), both new and old, often with a nostalgic leaning for those feelings of yesteryear.
