Secure a Rare Icon: Invincible #1 – Limited Local Comic Store Gold Foil Variant, Signed by Ryan Ottley
Launch into the legendary Invincible Universe with Invincible #1 (First Print, Limited Local Comic Store Gold Foil Variant, Signed by Ryan Ottley, Image Comics). Released January 22, 2003, this debut issue by Robert Kirkman and Cory Walker introduces Mark Grayson, a teenage superhero navigating his Viltrumite powers. The LCSD gold foil variant, signed by Ottley, is a collector’s holy grail with immense investment potential.
Key Appearances: This issue marks the first appearances of Mark Grayson (Invincible), Omni-Man, and Atom Eve, alongside the Teen Team (Robot, Rex Splode, Dupli-Kate). It sets the stage for Mark’s coming-of-age journey, blending high school drama with superhero action. The issue’s significance is amplified by its role as the foundation of the Invincible series, now a hit on Prime Video.
Current Value: The LCSD gold foil variant, exclusive to Local Comic Store Day, is highly sought-after due to its limited print run. Signed by Ottley, NM copies fetch $150–$300 on eBay, with CGC-graded 9.8 copies reaching $400–$600, driven by the signature and rarity. The first print’s cultural impact and Ottley’s art elevate its market demand.
Expected Value and Trends: The Invincible franchise is soaring, fueled by the Prime Video series’ third season (2025) and a planned live-action film. Key issues like Invincible #1 appreciate 20–30% annually, with this signed gold foil variant projected to hit $350–$500 by 2026. Long-term, CGC-graded copies could reach $800–$1,200 by 2030, especially if the series’ adaptations expand. LCSD exclusives and Ottley’s signature add significant growth potential.
Investment Opportunity: This signed LCSD gold foil Invincible #1 is a collector’s dream, blending Ottley’s iconic art with a pivotal superhero origin. Its limited nature and ties to a booming franchise make it a prime investment. Secure this rare gem now to own a cornerstone of comic history.
