BLACK CAT #5 BEN OLIVER BLACK CAT VARIANTProwl the shadows of redemption with BLACK CAT #5 BEN OLIVER BLACK CAT VARIANT, a high-wire heist of heroism from writer G. Willow Wilson and artist Gleb Melnikov (colors by Brian Valenza), published by Marvel Comics! Released on December 17, 2025, this pulse-pounding chapter traps Felicia Hardy—New York's slyest super-thief turned reluctant hero—in a web of betrayal after Spider-Man's Hellgate clash upends her world, forcing a desperate gambit against The Lizard's rampage as friends, foes, and public scorn close in, with one loyal wildcard holding the key to her sinking ship. Wilson's razor-sharp reinvention of Felicia's moral maze, laced with witty defiance and emotional stakes, paired with Melnikov's sleek, acrobatic visuals, delivers twisty thrills and character depth that cement Black Cat's solo spotlight as Marvel's freshest feline force.Cover DetailsThis sleek Ben Oliver Black Cat variant purrs with nocturnal allure: Felicia Hardy lounges provocatively atop a moonlit rooftop, her black catsuit hugging every curve as emerald eyes gleam with sly mischief, a trail of stolen jewels cascading into Gotham's abyss while shadowy rooftops and neon flickers frame her enigmatic grin. Oliver's hyper-detailed, pin-up precision—acclaimed from his Punisher and Venom triumphs—blends sensual shadowplay with urban edge, a collector's midnight muse for its thematic desperation and glossy sensuality that captures the issue's high-stakes pivot in one breathtaking, display-dominating pose.Key AppearancesSpotlighting Black Cat (Felicia Hardy) in her hero-thief turmoil, clashing with The Lizard's reptilian wrath and teases of Spider-Man echoes from Hellgate fallout, plus her enigmatic "ride or die" ally—everybody's favorite redhead—amid underworld whispers. Anchors the new Black Cat series' redemption arc, linking to Amazing Spider-Man lore and broader Marvel street-level sagas—primed for Sony's Spider-Verse sequels exploring Felicia's grey-area grit in multiversal mischief.Current Fair Market Value (FMV)Raw copies trade at $8-$12 on eBay post-release sales, fueled by Oliver's variant prestige, Wilson's acclaimed return, and strong Marvel orders for this jail gambit key.

As the comic market grows 6.09% to $26.75 billion by 2032, catalysts like Spider-Verse integrations could quadruple premiums for this Lizard showdown milestone.Why Invest Now?Wilson's bold evolution and Melnikov's agile artistry prowl a thief-to-hero triumph primed for explosive icon status and ROI leaps, amplified by Oliver's seductive spin.
