THE SUPERNATURALS #1

Cover shows strong gloss and sharp corners with no visible creasing, tears, or spine stress in this photo; the numbered limited edition (341/1500) marking and two ink signatures are present on the lower cover, which are treated as part of the original printing/signing rather than damage. No color breaks or edge chipping are visible, though the book is under a protective sleeve which may obscure minor surface wear. Interior and back cover were not assessed, so grade is capped conservatively.

The Supernaturals #1 was a 1998 one-shot published under Marvel's short-lived Marvel Edge-adjacent experiments with outside talent, created and written by Brian Pulido, best known as the founder of Chaos! Comics and creator of Lady Death. The book assembled an original team of supernatural-themed characters for a single issue that did not spawn an ongoing series, making it a minor footnote in Marvel's late-1990s output rather than a foundational or franchise-defining release. It carries no first appearances of note within Marvel's mainstream continuity and no landmark creative-team pedigree beyond Pulido's involvement.

Market activity is sparse across the board: the CGC census totals only 45 universal copies against a modern print run, and sales data is limited to single digits at the top grades. The FMV curve compresses tightly at the high end, with 9.6 and 9.8 separated by roughly $60, reflecting a book bought almost entirely by completists and CGC 9.8 chasers rather than by narrative or character demand. Lower-grade raw copies see negligible secondary-market turnover, trading closer to bargain-bin and back-issue-box pricing than to any meaningful collector premium.

This is a book for Chaos!/Pulido completists, Marvel one-shot cataloguers, and census-chasers pursuing a thin 9.8 pop rather than for character or team-driven buyers. The archive's copy carries added interest as a Dynamic Forces signed and hand-numbered edition (341/1500) with its matching certificate of authenticity, a detail that distinguishes it from the bulk of raw copies circulating in the direct market and should be disclosed to any buyer assembling a signed-edition or Pulido-specific collection. Across grades the book trades thinly, with most value concentrated at the top of the census rather than in raw mid-grade commerce.
