Red Sonja/Claw: The Devil’s Hands #2 (2006) FN+ – John Layman Signed, No COA
Own a unique piece of comic history with Red Sonja/Claw: The Devil’s Hands #2 (WildStorm/Dynamite Entertainment, 2006), a Fine Plus (FN+) condition issue signed by writer John Layman, without a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). Featuring covers by Jim Lee or Gabriele Dell’Otto, this issue from the 4-part miniseries offers key story moments, solid current value, and promising investment potential, driven by Red Sonja’s growing popularity.
Key Appearances: Written by John Layman and illustrated by Andy Smith, Red Sonja/Claw #2 continues the epic crossover between Red Sonja, the iconic She-Devil with a Sword, and Claw the Unconquered, a cursed warrior with a demonic hand. Titled “Betrayed,” this issue sees Sonja and Claw seeking refuge in a town outside an enemy’s castle, only to face a siege by minions of a despotic sorcerer from Sonja’s past, who holds clues to Claw’s curse. The Layman signature adds a personal touch, appealing to fans of this sword-and-sorcery team-up.
Current Value: In FN+ condition, Red Sonja/Claw #2 is an affordable collectible. Recent eBay sales show raw FN to VF copies trading at $3–$10, with NM copies reaching $5–$15. Signed copies without COA typically add a $2–$5 premium, placing this issue at $5–$12 raw, while CGC 9.8 graded copies fetch $25–$50. The FN+ grade indicates light wear but intact appeal, with vibrant colors suitable for collectors. The Jim Lee or Dell’Otto cover enhances value, with Dell’Otto variants often commanding a slight premium.
Expected Value Trends & Upcoming Events: The value of Red Sonja/Claw #2 is set to grow with Red Sonja’s rising profile. Rumors of a 2026 Red Sonja film are driving demand, with key Sonja issues like Marvel Feature #1 historically rising 20–50% during media hype. Dynamite’s 2023 relaunch and titles like Red Sonja Attacks Mars (March 2025) keep Sonja relevant, while Claw’s cult DC status adds crossover appeal. The Layman signature, despite lacking a COA, may attract niche collectors. Expect FN+ signed copies to reach $10–$20 and CGC 9.8 copies to hit $50–$80 within 12–24 months, especially if film news solidifies or signed comics gain convention traction.
This Red Sonja/Claw: The Devil’s Hands #2 in FN+, signed by John Layman, is a compelling blend of action-packed storytelling, iconic art, and investment potential. Ideal for collectors seeking signed, affordable crossovers, this issue shines as Red Sonja’s star ascends. Secure this unique collectible now and add a bold piece to your collection!
