# Murkrow #057/094 — Phantasmal Flames

## Summary

Murkrow is a bulk common, a coin-flip attacker that fills out the early pages of a set without anyone chasing it. Its draw is the Johto fan base, since the Darkness crow has long been a favorite of Gen II loyalists, and Tomokazu Komiya's name adds a little goodwill for illustrator completists. A $0.14 modelled guide, up 40% over 30 days on 53 copies traded, says bulk, with 3,269 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $45, 325 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
