Sorry the top 10 is late this week - I was off watching Bady Driver last night (which comes highly recommended) - Anyway back to the charts - With quite a success for DC as Dark Days The Forge 1-shot had one of our biggest first week debuts (only beaten by the original DC Rebirth one-shot) - This bodes well for METAL releasing later in the year (let us know if you want that added to pulls).
Flash just held off Secret Empire #4 and Star Wars had a big week - again partly due to the Screaming Citadel crossover but maybe also some additional purchases due to Vader #1 being such a success?
Defenders had a solid debut with the standard cover selling out on a slightly larger than normal Marvel #1 order - we were slightly hesitant as the Netflix series is still a way off.
As predicted Dark Knight III #9 charted again as more pulls were picked up - we also sold a good portion of our restock order as well.
Aftershock charted again this week with the debut of Jimmy's Bastards - selling out and restocked this week. It will be interesting to see how many continue as Ennis certainly didn't pull any punches with this one!
That's all for this week - Click HERE to see the comics released this week charting next week - Will Vader #2 hang on to readers, will Peter Parker find a place in the hearts of Spider-man readers?!?!
