Now that the holidays have ended and people have stopped buying comics as stocking stuffers and as gifts for people, who they've heard enjoy superheroes........... You know what? Comics are a weird gift to get someone. Trades I can see, but individual issues? Anyway, with the amount of push that DC Comics received in sales for December, there has to be some sort of holiday miracle type situation going on. For this list I'll only be putting on what we here at Weird Science consider the "main books" and I'll be omitting digital first collected issues. So yeah, no fuss, no muss. Let's get to checking the numbers.

If they slapped Scott Snyder's name on Omega Men, but still allowed Tom King to write it, would it sell better?
