# Venipede #132/086 — Black Bolt

## Summary

Venipede is a Gen V Bug-Poison starter-adjacent favorite among Unova fans, and Black Bolt's Illustration rares exist to celebrate that region's roster. Apios is a respected artist with a devoted following, so the draw here is collectible charm, since a lone Basic with a poison poke never made waves in play. At an $8.05 sold median, up 13% over 30 days on 113 copies traded, with 70 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.13 out of Black Bolt; a PSA 10 brings $400, 50 times raw, but a 13% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
