Lady Death: The Beginning #1 – Free Comic Book Day Edition, Signed with COA
Unlock a collector’s treasure with Lady Death: The Beginning #1, the 2012 Free Comic Book Day edition from Avatar Press, signed by creator Brian Pulido with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). In Near Mint (NM) condition, this limited gem is a must-have for fans and investors seeking a pivotal piece of Lady Death’s legacy.
Key Appearances: This 40-page special, written by Brian Pulido and Mike Wolfer with art by Marcelo Mueller, marks Lady Death’s 20th anniversary and introduces her reimagined Avatar Press storyline. It collects Lady Death Premiere and Issue #0, chronicling Hope’s transformation into the fierce goddess of Hell after being stripped of her powers by the villainous Death Queen. As Illadra, a medieval thief, she embarks on a brutal quest to reclaim her identity, facing demonic emissaries and zombie warriors. Key characters include Death Queen, Wargoth, and Satasha, setting the stage for an epic saga of vengeance and self-discovery.
Current Value: The Free Comic Book Day 2012 edition, especially signed with a COA, is a rare find due to its limited distribution and promotional nature. Recent eBay sales show NM signed copies ranging from $20–$100, with high-grade CGC copies (9.4–9.8) fetching $80–$150. The signature and COA boost its value, often commanding a premium over unsigned FCBD issues, which typically sell for $10–$50 in similar condition.
Expected Value Trends & Upcoming Events: Lady Death’s cult following and the Chaos! Comics revival continue to drive demand for signed, limited editions. FCBD issues, especially signed, have appreciated 5–10% annually, with spikes during convention seasons or media announcements. With San Diego Comic-Con 2025 and potential Lady Death projects (e.g., Coffin Comics’ crowdfunding campaigns) on the horizon, this issue could see a 15–25% value increase, potentially reaching $100–$200 by mid-2027, particularly if graded. The signed COA and its role as an accessible entry to Lady Death’s modern era make it a strong investment, fueled by “Fiends” and collectors seeking rare variants.
Don’t miss this chance to own a cornerstone of Lady Death’s modern saga. The Lady Death: The Beginning #1 FCBD Edition, signed with COA, blends rarity, iconic storytelling, and investment potential. Secure this collectible now and join the ranks of Lady Death’s loyal “Fiends”!
