Modern variant issues featuring David Nakayama covers consistently trade in the $15-$25 range raw, depending on character popularity.
Grading Recommendation
Given the modern era of the book, professional grading is generally only recommended if a 9.8 or 9.9 is expected to yield a profit over grading and shipping costs. Due to the high cost of grading modern raw books, keeping it raw in its current protective sleeve is often preferred unless part of a larger submission.
Notable Features
Features a striking minimalist Color Block Variant cover showcasing the character Mystique by fan-favorite artist David Nakayama.
Authentication Notes
Standard modern Marvel trade dress, correct barcode and UPC box placement in the bottom right corner, appropriate cardstock cover weight, and clear printing resolution indicating an authentic publisher copy.
