Secure a Rare Masterpiece: Invincible Universe: Battle Beast #1 – First Print, Tyler Kirkham Virgin X-Men #141 Homage Variant, Signed by Ryan Ottley
Immerse yourself in the Invincible Universe with Battle Beast #1 (First Print, Tyler Kirkham Virgin Variant, Limited to 1,200 Copies, Signed by Ryan Ottley, Image Comics). Released May 14, 2025, this explosive series premiere by Robert Kirkman and Ryan Ottley unleashes Battle Beast’s first solo story. The Tyler Kirkham virgin variant, paying homage to X-Men #141’s iconic “Days of Future Past” cover, is a collector’s holy grail, enhanced by Ottley’s signature.
Key Appearances: This issue launches Battle Beast’s solo series, exploring his relentless quest for a worthy foe between Invincible #19 (his debut) and #55. It’s a pivotal chapter for fans, revealing his untold saga. The blind bag program adds allure, potentially including reprints like Invincible #19 or Marvel Team-Up #14 (Invincible and Spider-Man crossover), making this a must-have for collectors.
Current Value: With nearly 400,000 copies sold, Battle Beast #1 shattered records for creator-owned comics, selling out at distributors. The Tyler Kirkham virgin variant, limited to 1,200 copies and signed by Ottley, commands $100–$200 in NM condition on platforms like eBay, driven by its exclusivity, homage design, and signature. CGC-graded copies with Kirkham’s custom label fetch up to $300.
Expected Value and Trends: The Invincible franchise is soaring, fueled by the Prime Video series’ third season (2025) and Battle Beast’s cult following. The blind bag program and second printing (June 11, 2025) sustain market heat, while events like FanExpo Dallas exclusives could spike demand. Invincible key issues historically appreciate 20–30% annually, with this limited variant projected to hit $250–$400 by 2026. Long-term, CGC-graded copies could reach $500–$800 by 2030, especially if Battle Beast’s arc is adapted. The X-Men homage and Ottley’s signature amplify its investment appeal.
