Venom: Lethal Protector II — Greg Horn Exclusive Virgin Variant (CGC 9.8)

Description

CGC 9.8 — Near Mint/Mint. This copy is slabbed in an official CGC holder with the 9.8 grade visible on the label. The slab is intact with normal surface reflections from photography; there are no cracks or separations visible and the grade reflects no interior or pressing notes. Exclusive Greg Horn Virgin Variant — Unlettered (virgin) painted-style cover by Greg Horn. The cover showcases Horn’s detailed, gallery-style painting of Venom in a dynamic, menacing pose with dramatic lighting and an electrified background. The virgin treatment leaves the artwork unencumbered by logos or text, making it a premium display piece prized by variant and art-focused collectors. Condition & presentation — Cover colors are bright with strong saturation and the image appears well-centered in the slab. No restoration or pressing is indicated on the CGC label. The high grade (9.8) materially increases market desirability compared with raw copies, especially for a limited-distribution exclusive variant. Collectible value & appeal — High-profile cover artist (Greg Horn) + exclusive virgin variant = strong collector interest. This issue is particularly attractive for Venom fans, Horn collectors, and investors seeking high-grade modern variants for framing or showcase. The unlettered presentation gives a museum/gallery look that tends to command premium prices among variant-focused buyers. Notable features — Limited-distribution exclusive virgin cover, painted artwork by Greg Horn, CGC 9.8 grade, bright colors and apparent centering. No foil treatment on the cover; the value is driven by the artist variant and high-grade encapsulation.
