Exquisite Corpses #3 (1st Print, Valentine De Landro Cover B Variant, NM/NM+) - VegasComics.com Sales DescriptionInvestment Overview: Exquisite Corpses #3 (2025, Image Comics), written by James Tynion IV and Pornsak Pichetshote with art by Michael Walsh and Valentine De Landro, is a gripping chapter in the 13-issue horror event series. This Near Mint to Near Mint+ (NM/NM+) 1st print, featuring De Landro’s chilling Cover B variant, is a collector’s must-have, driven by its intense narrative and critical acclaim.
Key Appearances: Set in Oak Valley, Maine, this issue escalates the deadly game as Nurse Pete and another killer clash in a hospital and concert hall, raising the body count. Key characters include Leopold Strong, the Lone Gunman, and surviving townsfolk, with new killer developments teased. Nurse Pete’s bloodless murders add chilling depth to the “Corpse Crew” collaboration.
Current Fair Market Value (FMV): Raw NM/NM+ copies of the De Landro Cover B variant trade at $10-$20, with CGC 9.8 graded copies at $40-$60, fueled by the variant’s striking art and series buzz. The estimated print run of 15,000-25,000 for Cover B reflects strong demand, with greater scarcity than Cover A.
Projected FMV Trends: Raw NM/NM+ copies could reach $20-$35 and CGC 9.8 copies $60-$90 within 12-18 months, driven by the series’ critical success, Corpse Tour ’25 signings (e.g., SDCC 2025, July 25-27), and potential media adaptations. The trading card game tie-in and horror’s resurgence boost growth, though print run size may temper extreme spikes.
Investment Potential: Tynion and Pichetshote’s brutal storytelling, Walsh and De Landro’s visceral art, and the series’ Battle Royale-style horror make this variant a standout. Its social satire and collaborative energy ensure lasting appeal. Secure this NM/NM+ copy at VegasComics.com to invest in a scarce, high-demand issue with strong appreciation potential, ideal for horror collectors and speculators.
