I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

Okay, eink is really really good at two things: reading and taking notes/drawing.

Comics are a form of reading (especially french comics i read, theyre 50% text).

You highlight parts of books.

And for taking notes, say in class, is much nicer when you have color avilable

Hard disagree, e-ink is fantastic for two thing, reading and battery life. Everything interactive, you’re better off with a tablet.

Comics are a form of reading

We both mentioned it separarely. And for a good reason imo, traditional books are a much better fit for e-readers because reflowing text just werks while comics are going to be a lot harder.
