Top 10 Comics 13th-19th September 2016 - The Lenticularum Effect

Owen Lambert

Below are the top 10 selling comics at CGC for the week 13th-19th September 2017

1 DC COMICS DARK NIGHTS METAL #2 (OF 6)
2 MARVEL COMICS SECRET EMPIRE OMEGA #1 SE
3 DC COMICS ACTION COMICS #987 LENTICULARED (OZ EFFECT)
4 DC COMICS TEEN TITANS #12 (METAL)
5 DC COMICS FLASH #30
6 DC COMICS DETECTIVE COMICS #964
7 MARVEL COMICS VENOMVERSE #2 (OF 5)
8 DC COMICS HARLEY QUINN 25TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL #1
9 MARVEL COMICS JOURNEY SW LAST JEDI CAPT PHASMA #1 (OF 4)
10 DC COMICS TITANS #15

 

Well.... no surprises here - Metal #2 owned the sales this week beating week 1 sales for the first issue by 20%! Feedback on this has been (almost) universally great from readers here and I would think the series will continue to rule the roost for some time (Will Marvel Legacy #1 give it a run for it's money?)

The Red Death #1 lands this week and will almost certainly take #1 next week with almost all subs for Metal wanting the 1-shots as well.

Secret Empire's swan song took second place with pretty much all readers taking on the final entry and while it was a 'super talky Spencer issue'(tm) the payoff at the end was fun.

Action comics sold twice as much as normal as the 'Lenticularum effect'(tm) took hold (that stuff smells great as well!) - The payoff inside revealing who Mr Oz is should also help the mini series carry on doing well.

the middle of the chart would have been the top if not for the unusual releases with DC's solid sellers ruling the roost - Venomverse held most of it's readers to issue #2 and Harley had a 50% bump for her 25th Anniversary issue.

Phasma managed to chart for the second week in a row (Owen is claiming credit for this as he won't shut up about her) and is selling Vader like numbers.

It was not a week for indies charting but a number managed the top 20 with Redlands #2, Baby Teeth #4 and Kill Or Be Killed all holding up well.

That's all for this week.
