Written and illustrated by Mark Spears (Spawn, Action Comics, Power Rangers), this issue, set for release April 30, 2025, escalates the chilling narrative based on Spears’ hit trading card series. Set in the early 1980s, Richie, Mikey, and Spaz explore the abandoned Crowley estate, uncovering horrors beyond their wildest fears. Meanwhile, the local sheriff detains a mysterious drifter, suspecting his role in the town’s bizarre events, as an ancient evil stirs. Key characters include the Monster Slayer, the detectives, and the kids, with monstrous entities evoking classic horror vibes. The Hexy The Witch Cover B, showcasing the enigmatic witch, amplifies its collectible allure.
The First Printing Hexy The Witch Cover B, retailing at $5.99, is expected to command $5–$20 in NM+ condition upon release, based on eBay trends for Mark Spears Monsters #3 Cover B ($5–$20 NM) and the series’ sell-out history (issue #3 had a 42,000-copy print run, up 239% from #2). CGC 9.8 graded copies are projected to fetch $40–$100, with limited exclusives like the Huntsville Con Mummy Variant (200 copies) selling for $20–$50 NM. By comparison, the Dracula Cover A is projected at $5–$20 NM, and the Cover G Metal Variant retails at $99–$150 NM. The Cover B’s value aligns with Mark Spears Monsters #1 Cover B ($5–$20 NM), offering an affordable entry.
Mark Spears Monsters is an indie hit, with sold-out printings and film/TV adaptation potential. Issue #4’s narrative intensity and low print runs (16,050 for #4) drive its investment appeal. First printings of key indie issues often appreciate 50–100% within 1–3 years, as seen with Something Is Killing the Children #1 ($50–$200 NM). By 2027, NM+ copies could reach $20–$50, and CGC 9.8 copies may hit $100–$200, especially with horror buzz from X-Men ’97 Season 2 (2025) or adaptation news. Grading delays (ongoing into mid-2025) may tighten supply, boosting prices.
The Mark Spears Monsters #4 Hexy The Witch Cover B in NM+ blends affordability, artistic prestige, and narrative depth. Spears’ evocative witch art and the issue’s gripping horror tale make it a collector’s prize. Ideal for fans seeking a key indie issue or investors eyeing Keenspot’s rising star, this comic offers strong upside.
