108 was definitely fun to read. Went to quick though. Not sure what Carl and Michonne were doing outside the fence though.

[Beige]

I think it was just to highlight a new flaw that Carl has to get used to - and that until he does,he's not really ready to go toe - to - toe with Zombies yet.

70,000 copies is a great number - anyone think 100,000 per issue is attainable?

[ThoseBackPages]

i think 100k IS possible, maybe in a years time

[Beige]

It's amazing isn't it.

7k - now 70k in 10 years.

Certainly the idea of buying extras seems questionable now - anything after #100 is pulling huge numbers.

Yet on some sub #100 issues,it can take 2-3 weeks to sell a cgc 9.8 blue for any kind of $45+ price.

I wonder if TWD has become a 'keys only' book to slab?

Certainly makes the price of buying a raw collection very much dependant on the condition of #1 - #5 plus the usual suspects.

Interesting.

That said, the cover for 109 is available and open to offers!

You thinking of making an offer?

 

I actually just bought a WD cover

 

oh? go on

NICE, which cover?

 

I know I'm teasing, but I can't say yet. I'll upload onto my CAF once I get the OK.

[ThoseBackPages]

Oh and I would have liked the tiger's name better if it was chalupa batman

[paperheart]

there is no place for me in this thread. i thought the issue was stupid to the point of self parody. a knight on horseback, a king w/ a tiger. i'm going to re-read the first 48 issues to cleanse the palate.

[Wushugushu]

I feel like I've seen the argument dwayne and rick had at least 10 times in this series.

Yeah, the horses and tiger were a little..... odd? And the fact there is, yet another, community we're being introduced too.

 

That's what I feel this title has come down to.

 

Meet a community -> there's a baddie in there somewhere -> kill some zombies in the interim -> Rick plotting something -> Kill baddie. -> New community with an even worse baddie. -> Rinse. Repeat.

 

I enjoyed the issue for what it was but I'm not getting nearly the same feeling as I did in the first 70-80 issues.

 

 

[comicsnyc22]

Yeah- I think i'm sucked up into enough that I just don't see the rediculousness. The language, the knights, the whole kingdom, saviors, ezekiel, blah blah blah. It was a little much. That said, I will still buy every issue.

All of the OA to issue #108 was purchased privately

 

Why?

I ask myself this question a 100x now. And I still don't know. All I know is that the all the OA is sold out, and Midtown sold out of 108 issues. So I bought 8 copies, and am going to grade one this weekend at MegaCon. 9.8?

I agree...I think this was the first issue I've EVER read where I was like that sucked. If people are speculating on Ezkiel all the power to them but man that seems like a stretch. If I never see him in another WD book, I'll be happy!!!
