An 80 percent drop has become commonplace amongst many on the Top 100 variant comics list, sadly.

It seems that the market moves in cycles. Back in the early 1990s, Valiant comics were part of the implosion.

Dealers were left holding boxes full of unsaleable dross.

X-O Manowar became popular in the 2010s, when this variant became hot. Not any more.

There are just 61 Universal and 6 signed copies in the CGC census.

Scarcity can't save this comic. It's simply not in demand anymore.
