Recent Sales

Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if it is a guaranteed 9.8 which is difficult to assess through a bag. As a modern variant with moderate demand, the cost of grading may equal the market value. A 'Press and Grade' would be recommended if intent is for long-term collection.
Notable Features
Features a variant cover by artist InHyuk Lee. Part of the critically acclaimed Donny Cates run which introduced Knull and expanded the Venom mythos significantly. Not a major key issue, but a popular cover for character collectors.
Authentication Notes
The book features standard modern Marvel trade dress including the 'Variant Edition' banner top right and the barcode in the bottom left corner. Gloss and print registration appear consistent with official Marvel mass-market production.
