Question For Comic Experts

Brobocop · 02-26-2015, 11:40 AM

So I had a VIP badge for this past weekend's inaugural Wizard World Cleveland Comic Con and when I went in they gave me two Walking Dead comic books. I almost threw them away since I don't collect comics but I held onto them anyways.

I guess my question is is that I now see they do have some value so would it be worth it to get them graded, sell them now, or hold them? I have plenty of keepsakes from the show so I don't feel the need to hang on to these. Any input or advice would be appreciated.

It says they are being produced in limited quantities and being given out at cons makes it a more limited commodity. If you can wait they may become very sought after or be more valuable than they would be if you sold it now. Take care of them because they are worth something. I'm sure other more knowledgable members will chime in and you might even find someone who wants to buy it from you.

Each Wizard World show has a Walking Dead Variant they hand out. Some are more valuable than others, it all depends on the cover art and artist. Take a look at completed sales on Ebay to get an idea of what they could be worth graded, but all in all, Walking Dead stuff sells.

Just as a side-note and personal opinion with no bearing on the value, but that has to be one of the WORST TWD covers I have ever seen.......Was the embedded axe/hatchet in the now free/swung hand, and the drawing done with Rick's body turned to administer another blow from his other hand? The action lines almost make it look like the hatchet magically dropped out of the sky.......I am in no ways an artist, but just really don't like this cover compared to many that have come before it :P

I don't care for the Cleveland edition for the sole fact that it had no resemblance of Rick either from the show or comic
