At MegaCon this year, I picked up a number of cheap comics. Most were 50 cents, some were $1. There might not be any spectacular gems here, but for that price it is hard to find a bad buy.
Ok, so admittedly I picked this issue of C-23 up because it had Jim Lee's name on the cover. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that Jim Lee had anything do do with the art or the writing. Supposedly, he is the "creator" though.
Unfortunately, this is one of those series that it is a little difficult to figure out exactly what is going on from just one issue. This is issue number 7 of an 8 issue series and was published in October 1998. Apparently there is a war going on between a "good" race and an "evil" race and the savior of the story (born of both races of course) has just been rescued from some kind of prison...by a possible lover?
Apparently, this comic book was popular enough to spawn a collectible card game published by Wizards of the Coast. Then again, maybe the card game was planned from the beginning on the strength of the Jim Lee and Image Comics names.
