NFT Comics: Game changer or Bust?
1 1

38 posts in this topic

One common criticism of digital comics is that they can’t be speculated on and never have an opportunity to go up in value or be traded. 

Someone, somewhere, had to create a situation to try and change this ‘limitation’, sooner or later.

For most of us, enough versions of Superman 1 exist already, physical and digital, not to need another.

I’ve always liked digital as a calm reading oasis away from the frenzy of the physical copy market, so the blockchain machinations here really don’t matter to me. I’ll stick with 50p trade paperbacks from Humble Bundle.

This is my favorite- "Digital Wear". How freaking wtf is that?

Each DC Collectible Comic will have one of five levels of rarity that are randomly assigned at the time of purchase: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic or Legendary. If purchasing from the Legacy Comics collection, the rarity levels correlate to the digital wear that will appear on the comic book. A Common graded book may look faded and aged while the Legendary comic features a more pristine look to it.

CGC announce NFT labels in 3... 2...

I took that to mean :

Common 2.0-4.0

Uncommon 5.0-7.0

Rare 8.0-9.4

Epic 9.6-10

My best guess.

Wal-Mart and Target in America have both recently announced NFT dealies for comic figures, being Batman and TMNT, respectively. I don't know why all these companies think now is the perfect time. Must just have taken that long for their dev teams to come up with anything. At least with Targets there seems to be physical figures involved somehow. I don't understand how they work because I only gave them a cursory read, which is frankly more than they deserve.
