When Centipede Press announced the expanded 500-copy second printing (released at a retail price of around $500–$800), the skyrocketing value of the 2015 set stabilized slightly. However, because the 2015 set features genuine, hand-signed signature pages by the contributing artists (rather than the facsimile signatures in the newer run), it remains the ultimate prize for completions and continues to hold its premium value.
