Psylocke #3 (2024) Carlo Pagulayan 1:25 Incentive Variant – A Collector’s Prize
Dive into the intense world of Psylocke #3 (2024) Carlo Pagulayan 1:25 Incentive Variant, a standout issue from Marvel’s X-Men: From the Ashes relaunch. Written by Alyssa Wong and illustrated by Vincenzo Carratù, this comic deepens Kwannon’s solo journey, featuring a rare and dynamic cover by Carlo Pagulayan, known for his work on Planet Hulk and Marvel 85th Anniversary Special. Limited as a 1:25 retailer incentive, this variant is a top-tier collectible for investors and Psylocke fans.
Key Appearances: This issue follows Kwannon (Psylocke) as she hunts a mutant trafficking ring, only to be stalked by a dangerous new villain, the Taxonomist, tied to her dark past with the Hand. Key characters include her lover, John Greycrow, who aids her mission, alongside X-Men allies like Cyclops, Juggernaut, and Kid Omega from X-Men #1. The story explores whether Kwannon’s investigation has created new enemies or if her assassin history is catching up, delivering high-stakes action and emotional depth.
Current Value: As of June 2025, Psylocke #3 Carlo Pagulayan 1:25 Variant in NM condition is valued at $30–$50 for raw copies, with CGC 9.8 graded copies fetching $80–$120, based on eBay sales and retailer data. The variant’s rarity, Pagulayan’s bold art, and the issue’s pivotal role in Psylocke’s arc drive strong aftermarket demand, particularly among X-Men collectors.
Expected Value and Trends: This comic’s value is poised for growth, fueled by Kwannon’s rising star in the X-Men universe and the From the Ashes relaunch. The Taxonomist’s arc, continuing through Psylocke #4–6 (February–April 2025), and Psylocke’s ties to X-Men #1 amplify its speculative appeal. The Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion event (June 2025) and potential MCU developments could further boost X-Men-related issues. Pagulayan’s variants consistently resell for $30+ ungraded, and this issue could see a 30–50% value increase over the next 12–24 months, especially for high-grade copies, as collectors chase limited incentives and key story beats.
