It's time to start Checking The Numbers again and see how our favorite comics are doing in sales. Luckily, a bunch of our books were boosted by their fiftieth issue, but for the most part, it looks like people are bailing until Rebirth comes around.......... which hopefully gives these books the boosts they need. Like always, we're only putting books on here that we consider the "main" DC books so this won't include collected digital titles, Vertigo or DC Essentials.

It's like the more unknown and unpopular the book is the least it's likely to sell. I see all the Snyder supporters turned out in their droves. I'm wondering if they left their biases at the door before reading Batman #50?
ReplyDeleteOmega Men and Martian Manhunter selling so little is an absolute shame. I forsee Omega Men and The Vision selling in collections very well later down the road when King is realized as the next big writer.
ReplyDeleteOmega Men should rightly be considered a classic in the future. Making us fools who were reading it at the time holders of very valuable comics...
