Twisted Metal 2 Comic Book 0

[Fireice989]

Hey guys! I wanted to share something very special with you! I bought this last week and it just arrived the other day! It's so beautiful, I love it! This is the extremely rare Twisted Metal 2 one-shot comic book which was released in 1996 to promote the game that was originally released on PlayStation. The only issue that was ever created and only 100 copies were ever printed. It was published by DC Comics. Half of them were handed out to fans as prizes and the other 50 were assumed lost and/or destroyed. I think maybe some fans might have requested a copy but I'm not sure. Unofficially, from the chatter I've read online, only about 5 copies are known to be in existence currently and this copy is in near mint condition. It's so rare that it's considered the "Holy Grail" of Twisted Metal memorabilia. It is also considered to be canon, as it was written in conjunction with Twisted Metal 2.

The only real flaw is it has a very small imperfection at the top right of the book but I could care less about that. For it being 23 years old, I'd say that's pretty damn good!

I feel so lucky to own this! I knew I had to act on this immediately because I wasn't going to get another opportunity any time soon. You can't find this anywhere! Twisted Metal 2 was one of my favorite games from my childhood. Who played this video game series as a kid back in the day? What's even more nostalgic about this for me is Crash Bandicoot is on the top left of the back cover, right next to Sweetooth's head! The whole thing is just so perfect for me! I feel like this is now my most prized possession!

Nice pickup! Loved this game as a kid. Axel and Thumper were my go to characters.

Spent sooooooo much time with the first two TM games, it was a go-to favorite with my friends. Ah, those days of sitting around a single tv with your buds, before online gaming reared its head. I also dug the storyline/mythology of those games, it was creepy and cool. Nice book!

Literally one-of-a-kind. The only Twisted Metal comic book on CGC's Census. Nice.

Now that is a rare collectible. Congrats. Thumper was really good in tm2. The AI was most dangerous with shadow. But of course minion was stronger than all.
