Plot

Generation X #68 – “Come On Die Young: Part 2”

In this installment, the Generation X team grapples with escalating challenges. One member becomes the target of intensifying anti-mutant paranoia, reflecting the broader societal tensions of the time. Amidst this turmoil, two teammates find solace in each other, leading to a budding romantic connection. The narrative also marks the return of Adrienne Frost, whose presence adds complexity to the team's dynamics.

This issue is part of the "Shockwave" storyline, which delves into the personal and collective struggles of young mutants navigating a world fraught with prejudice and internal conflicts. The story is penned by Warren Ellis and Brian Wood, with artwork by Ron Lim and Steve Pugh, and a cover by Arthur Adams.

Comic Condition & Grading

This comic has been visually inspected and graded based on over 30 years of collecting experience. I use standard UK grading terminology:

NM / Near Mint – virtually perfect

VF / Very Fine – light wear only

FN / Fine – general wear, still clean and complete

VG / Very Good – moderate wear, minor defects

G / Good – heavy wear or age, complete unless noted

Disclaimer:
Grading is inherently subjective. I do my best to describe each comic honestly and clearly, but everyone sees things slightly differently. I am not a professional grader or CGC-certified appraiser.
Please refer to all photos, read the description carefully, and feel free to ask questions before buying. I’m always happy to provide extra details or images.
Returns are accepted if something is significantly misdescribed — but please remember that condition expectations can vary from one collector to another.
