All this backstory. A heroic moment, a redemption arc and some good development. All leading up to one of the best sequels in a franchise. It would really suck if this character was horribly killed off and replaced by a whiny man child in an attempt to gain new fans with a new console instead of using the ending they should have. But that would never happen.

The comics is quite a marvel to look at artistically. To me, it feels right that the art style in both the games and the comics are somewhat similar so they have some closer connection in the continuity. It kinda makes sense to follow that style in the comics. I kinda wish there was a comic series based on Second Son to expand upon the characters more. Heck maybe learning about Reggie and Delsin's backstory, what happened to their parents, Delsin's path of being a delinquent, his relationship with his Akomish tribe, etc.

These comics being adapted into a game could be a great way to bring Cole and his story back without spitting on his death in Infamous 2 Either that or I’d love to see a game based on what happened to the Cole that failed and became Kessler.

I've been a fan of this series since 2011. I didn't have the cash to go out and get a PS3 until 2010, and yeah I downloaded the first game, but I couldn't get very far. I played a demo of InFAMOUS 2 at GameStop and went "I must have this." Bought it, played them both, loved them. I didn't even know there were comics until 2015, and I went out and bought 'em digitally. (Yeah I knew about Post Blast, but that I just didn't care about much.) I've been wanting to do another playthrough of the games again, but sadly both my PS3 controllers bit the dust, half the buttons on both are refusing to work, or are being jank and going off at random. I looked it up, something to do with the Siaxxis in the controllers are busted, had to buy a new one. Pity party out of the way, I didn't even know you posted this, I have you subbed and bell thing, but KZread refuses to tell me when you upload.

Great video, my favorite electric boi

A few days ago I had my final projects/presentations. I've been watching your Infamous videos and been dying to play the first two games again bc I love them so much. Probably my favorite games ever. When I was finally free, I started InFamous 1 and just finished it today. I had no idea today was the 10 year anniversary!! Starting 2 in a few minutes! Edit: It is the day after and I just finished the second game. Good karma, but choosing the evil ending, the canon way. I had no idea I wasn´t able to pick the evil ending with Hero karma, but I was finally able to by following the steps of your video! I spent about an hour and a half of extra time before the ending getting bad karma and then good karma again,kind of anticlimatic, but worth it. Betraying humanity as Good Cole was awesome. Made the whole experience of replaying my favorite game (just playing all day) since so long even better. So Thanks!

I've heard of these comics but never found any copies for sale. Thanks for making this vid. From one inFAMOUS fan to another!

I could have gotten a ps4 but I chose ps3 because of this game that's how good this game is

Cole will live through the ages in my mind thank god that I can play infamous on PS4 lol

Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale convinced me to gradually play games associated with each fighter. I ended up getting the InFAMOUS collection ages ago. After all, its a great value. If I'm not mistaken, I read the interquel comics before playing two. So there's that. I just wish Second Son hadn't crapped all over Cole's sacrifice by having the conduit gene resurface. Sucker Punch relying on trophy data was also very unwise in my opinion. We could have had InFAMOUS 3. Oh well. I'll always consider the "evil" ending to 2 canon. :)

I’d read the comic’s previously. But coming back to them and re learning the things I forgot really finished the story of infamous for me, honestly, as much as I’d like a new game for the series. I think a prequel would be better, since it’s quite obvious Kessler had different abilities unlike Coles. Using those would be quite interesting in terms of gameplay. Regardless of all that, those childhood memories of my brother waking me up to watch him play infamous on the evil play through, then let me do the good one will never stop being amazing.

I really like infamous and Cole is my hero when i play infamous with my friends 10 years later ı love how gaame give us chance of good and evil but most of all Cole become a hero for me

I honestly think this would've made a much better story if it was Infamous 2 instead. Infamous 2's a great game, but all the plot threads it left unresolved was a huge part of why it was so disappointing.

Kessler nearly screwed up his own plan by creating David, since David almost killed Cole. Having *said* that, Kessler probably would have regarded David as yet another test for Cole. Another way of toughening Cole up before facing the Beast.

to the creator of this video this gave me such nostalgia i hope you get an extra chicken nugget in your next order

Okay to reply to my last comment as well, I wish I was able to read the comics back then but due to me not having any way on doing so I couldnt. But I did search up what it was about. I knew there was something different about Cole in inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2 (not as in the change of voice) but as in the actual character himself. So I did know abit of details but not that much.

InFAMOUS 2 cole switches to evil cause he has no choice

Infamous is what inspired my character design.

You know, seeing Sasha come back and be important to the story was a good thing, i'm just wondering, after she disappears once again, where does she end up? Did she stay in Empire city, and ended up dying with the city, or did she stay alive until the end of infamous 2? If that's the case, it would have been interesting to see her again in infamous 3. Damnit, another reason to dislike what we got... Why is it easy to find?

So canonically, Cole mcgracth is good. They should make delson row evil. It would make sense cuz he's a powerful conduit.

wait, so if the first game relied on the evil ending, then if cole used the ray sphere again but ultimately got destroyed, the does that mean cole's physical appearance should've changed as well since he activated it?

I’m still trying to figure out how all this happened within 21 days

The comics periodically keep track of the days since the Ray Sphere gave Cole his powers. The last day is #28. It would be reasonable to suggest that Kuo meets with him a day or two later, meaning Cole meant he met her a month after getting his powers.

You know i think the moment that Kessler implanted his visions into Cole's mind before his death, I think what Kessler was actually doing was implanting his very essence into Cole hence the reason that Kessler was able to visit Cole in a dream, because Kessler found that his consciousness lingered on inside Cole, its like what Obi-Wan told Vader, if you strike me down now, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine

Oh thank god, there's a comic for the content I actually wanted from game 2. I was so IRRITATED that infamous 2 didn't cover Moya, Alden, Sasha, or literally ANY of the various cliffhangers from the first game. The first game is awesome. I didn't end up liking the second game because they made Cole 20 years younger all the sudden and he was acting like a middle schooler, laughing at dumb sh*t like "penal code" They took the meaningful, well developed friendship between Zeke and Cole and they turned it into an unfunny version of Beavis and Butt-Head.

I really want to play through these games again but I have no way of playing them, I live in Australia so I can’t access ps now so I can’t play old ps3 games without physically buying them. I got so used to the ps4 that trying to go back to a ps3 controller also sucks If anyone knows of any way I could get infamous on pc or ps3 without ps now it would be greatly appreciated if you replied here
