Can anyone shed some light about what happened with this issue? I ask because I have a printed copy.

That's weird because it even says it's a 7-issue mini-series but it only has 1-5 with a variant of 1 listed.

there's this information thing called google.com, amazing what it can find smile

from comics.org: "The final two printed issues, #6 and #7 were heavily delayed due to the spring 2020 COVID-19 shutdown. Issue #6 was eventually released seven months after its original release date, while #7 was delayed indefinitely and included only in the collected edition of this series." They have no pic of #6 tho.

from bleeding cool: "..However, a few copies have turned up from comic book stores, of Gen:Lock #6, principally but not entirely from stores or sellers in the UK. It looks like before the shutdown, copies were distributed to Diamond UK. And as DC Comics left Diamond Comics Distributors and the US-side of Gen:Lock #6 was withdrawn, Diamond UK just… distributed what it had, rather than return them to the US."

so they kinda screwed people for the end unless you buy the trade paperback.

SO, I am sure this is the greatest thing, ever, and therefore UK variants of Issue #6 are highly prized and collectible?

sold for .99 to $356 and a best offer under $399 on that auction site. found at least 37 sales in last 2 months, worldwide, MOST of the oldest were the highest, and more recent ones have come down. plenty over $100. but as usual there, prices make no sense and there's little consistency.
