Catalogue note
The concluding issue of Rafael Grampá's four-part Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham, preserved in its original first-release Cover C state with a stark Jock card-stock variant. Published through DC Black Label after the creator-driven series began in 2023, the issue closes Grampá's psychologically dark reworking of Gotham while adding a distinct visual interpretation by one of the most recognisable modern Batman cover artists. This copy is preserved in a Collect Forever Soft Slab and is bibliographically distinct from the Rafael Grampá main cover, other open-order variants, incentive variants and the separately published Noir Edition.
Why this object matters
Jock’s finale variant has clear artist and comparative-cover value within the held Gargoyle group. Its status should be aligned with the Bermejo edition unless stronger copy-specific evidence emerges; card stock and first printing alone do not support 8.5.
Evidence limits: Complete under the standing TMR rule. The comic is sealed within a Collect Forever Soft Slab, so interior page completeness cannot be independently counted from the supplied photographs; no missing issued component is reported or visible.
