Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Near Mint (CGC 9.4)
Condition Details
The comic appears to be in very high-grade condition. It is currently bagged and boarded. There is a large price sticker/inventory label on the bottom left corner of the bag, which obscures potential corner defects, but the visible spine looks tight with no major stress lines. Corners visible through the plastic appear sharp. Minor surface scuffing on the plastic bag, but original cover gloss appears intact.
Estimated Market Value
$30 - $60 (Raw sticker price is $14.99; variant status and early hype drive the premium). Graded 9.8 could reach $100-$150.
Recent Sales
Similar 1:25 incentive variants of recent Carnage/Venom titles typically fluctuate between $35 and $55 upon release depending on cover artist popularity.
Grading Recommendation
Worth grading only if a 9.8 is guaranteed. Currently, the price sticker on the bag makes it difficult to verify the lower left corner. If clean, a press and grade could maximize value for collectors of Eddie Brock/Carnage key variants.
Notable Features
1:25 Incentive Variant cover by veteran Marvel artist Ron Lim. Features Eddie Brock undergoing a transformation into Carnage. Notable for being a modern low-distribution incentive ratio.
Authentication Notes
The presence of the store inventory sticker from a reputable comic retailer and modern high-gloss printing standards indicate this is an authentic Marvel publication. Staple placement and paper trim look consistent with current Marvel manufacturing.
