Thank you! I work for their book distributor and I have had the books on my desk for about 7 months now, smh. I started in the order they were released and was soo confused. I've been a fan of their music since forever and being a comic collector, I kind of feel ashamed that I haven't yet read them😂😂
Yay thanks for talking about this I just got back into coheed after 20 years when I started collecting vinyl…I sat forever on Amazon about buying the hard covers and now I can only get the paperback for secrets which makes me sad I’m ordering right now!!! Thanks again I def plan on watching more of your videos
I have all these comics and books about the Amory Wars and C&C. I’ve taken great care of my collection. I’ve only recently come back to the world of C&C and to see how much in value that it is at right now is mind blowing. I’m sitting on a small fortune lol wow.
I've been looking for it but I didn't get any results, would you have it downloaded by any chance? If this is the case and if I could write to an email address to obtain it, I would greatly appreciate it.
I’ve been a Coheed music Fan since the beginning. I have no idea why I’m just now knowing about all of this but I’m incredibly excited. I’ve never been into comics or anything like that so this is my first time but I cannot wait to start reading and hearing the music in a different light. Especially since I’m seeing them next month! This video was so helpful also side note we almost have the exact same tattoo on our shoulder💛Looking forward to listening to your other videos!!!
Just got my Second stage, Keeping secrets, and Good Apollo books from there most recent tour, really glad i finally got them and they have been a great read so far
Imagine how much regret I felt after going to their concert on May 22nd, 2016 at terminal 5 in NYC, bought a hat and hoodie, but never realized they were selling the comics there too and missed it... not a day goes by where the thought doesn't pop into my head lol
Been looking for Year of the Black Rainbow for YEARS. I can't believe I just found it on my local marketplace for $25 I'm in shock. Everywhere I look its over $300.
Omg you are one of the luckiest people alive!! I’m so jealous. Ive been looking for the book for years now too and have still yet to find one (or break down and pay the $300). Cheers! Enjoy the book!
Hey JJ thank you for having this channel and taking the time to explain this diverse and very cool world.. A friend of mine turned me on to the music of Coheed and Cambria yesterday and then I find out there is a story line to follow along in a graphic novel written by the lead singer of the band… I am a 53 yrs old and I think this is so killer and intriguing and I am looking forward to diving in… Thank you again for doing this video I was looking on Amazon and it was a bit over whelming on where to start.. It’s kind of like but not as bad as trying to figure out what Star Wars books to read there are so many story lines and I gave up on trying to stay in order with them.. 😂 But any way thank you for doing your videos on Armory Wars… Also I like your new tattoo🤘🏻 Craig
No animated movie ( though that really needs to get made one day) but here is the playlist with my story breakdowns for each album: th-cam.com/play/PL-W-WuhrJuMoctJ3thomqOJv0ZXblSxwQ.html
First of all, thank you so much for the helpful info here! Trying to find this stuff is a bit of a nightmare which really sucks! Outside of that, do you have another place to read The Afterman? The link you put in there doesn't have anything on the page.
Thanks for watching! Hard copies of Afterman are hard to find. I was able to get a deluxe edition reprint on Amazon but it was from someone selling their copy. To read it online, try this link: coheed.fandom.com/wiki/The_Afterman_(book)
@@JJMetalhead I have just received it and it must be the ultimate edition because it is the entire second stage arc that’s in hardcover so it must just have versions that don’t have ultimate edition explicitly said on it now still really exited to read it!
I was into it from The Bag.On.Line Adventures and even reading Year of the Black Rainbow but as I progressed with Good Apollo it kinda threw me off as it zoomed out of the narrative. I'd probably give it a try again.
Curious if these books have explicit language. Was thinking of getting into these with my 9 y/o who loves Coheed’s music. I haven’t heard too many songs that have an overuse of explicit language, if any. Thanks for the video!
There might be a few curse words here and there but not to many if I’m remembering correctly. It does contain very dark subject matter though. (Man murders his young children because he erroneously thinks they will later turn into monsters.)
Thanks for this video. I have a paperback copy of the two part second stage turbine blade and the Apollo version that came with the album. I’m gonna have to get the rest of everything. I don’t know why I stopped listening and reading cause Claudio is a fuckin genius.
I definitely should, just haven’t gotten around to it yet. One day I hope to have a big shelf for all my Coheed paraphernalia where I can display the comics.
@@JJMetalhead i unfortunately could not get the time off to go see them, again, lol they just played near me in Florida. It seems to be my curse. I've only had the honor once when i was 15 (36 now) and actually heard them for the first time at a warped tour. I always plan for it, but it never pans out.
omg i love the burning wings. literally coheed fans in my generation are so rare :')

I don’t blame you, I have hundreds of books on my to be read shelf! I do suggest you give them I read before reading the new Vaxis story though!

Just as a quick FYI they made some more copies of the Vaxis part 1 limited edition today with the prerelease of part 2!
I did now know that, thank you for sharing!
FYI: There is a PDF scan of the Afterman coffee table book floating around somewhere on reddit!
Oh awesome! I had no idea!

Coheed was what got me into comics honestly. Hope you enjoy reading the stories!
And no way! I’d love to see your tattoo, message me on IG!
Excited for you! I'm seeing them this coming Tuesday, I'm so excited!
This took me a little while but hunted down everything! I’ve really enjoyed reading the story from start to finish

@@KikonSketches It wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so expensive online
@@ravengaming7898 yeah the prices are insane
Thank you for this breakdown! It was really helpful. I might listen to the albums in chronological order to the stories.
This is super helpful, thanks.
Looking to start reading them, thank you for the help
Thank you!! I almost thought that good Apollo was first but I was wrong thank u!!!
Love your channel! Thanks for all the excellent info on Co&Ca!
Yea i got the year of the black rainbow novel. So glad i have it.

Welcome to the Coheed and Cambria fan club! We are called "the children of the fence"
Thank you for sharing, and I'm glad I could be of some help.
I heard you say you have a video with the story,did I hear that right? Plus…is there an animated sorta movie?
No animated movie ( though that really needs to get made one day) but here is the playlist with my story breakdowns for each album: th-cam.com/play/PL-W-WuhrJuMoctJ3thomqOJv0ZXblSxwQ.html
Ty for this!
I missed out on the Vaxis Act 1 book and I am bummed. It is sooo hard to find. I got my Act 2 preordered but I want Act 1 so bad.
I just heard that they released a few copies of Act 1 with the preorder of Act 2. I don't know if it's still an option, but maybe worth checking out!

Just bought all the books so I can binge-read them before seeing them on tour in July :)
Awesome! Enjoy!
So I just bought second stage turbine blade but it’s not the ultimate edition and I was wondering what the difference between the the two versions is?
The Ultimate edition has all 12 issues in one book. Depending on how you purchased it, you might only end up with one of the 12 issues.

I'd say the dark subject matter would be "worse" than a few curse words but I'm not a parent so

I suggest you buy bags and backs for your comics . It will protect them and keep them from being bent.
I definitely should, just haven’t gotten around to it yet. One day I hope to have a big shelf for all my Coheed paraphernalia where I can display the comics.

There a copy of year of the black rainbow on Amazon for $560. That shocked the hell out of me. Lol
Lol yup sounds about right. I’ve seen it on Facebook marketplace for around $300 though.
Also thank you for being the only person on TH-cam really making coheed lore of any quality. I'm here for all of it. Lol
I bought a hard copy of YOTBR a year or two ago. Very nice, very expensive and very worth it. $330. Oof.
I didn't catch what those albums were.
the ones she was holding were The Afterman albums, Ascension and Descension
just binged all videos, again. lol
Getting ready to see them live?

Just got one autographed at a concert and my pages are upside down. It's in a case now yhough cause, claudio scribble.
Any Claudio scribble is better than none! That’s awesome. I have yet to meet the band, but one day…
Oooo cheeky.
Year of the Black Rainbow is currently $547.08 in Nov of 2022. 😳
Yup. That's about what I've seen it go for. Outrageous!
