Another week flies by - See below to see what flew off CGC's shelves over the last seven days:
1 | DC COMICS | BATMAN #19 |
2 | DC COMICS | SUPERMAN #19 |
3 | DC COMICS | TITANS #9 |
4 | DARK HORSE COMICS | NEIL GAIMAN AMERICAN GODS SHADOWS #1 (MR) |
5 | DC COMICS | ALL STAR BATMAN #8 |
6 | DC COMICS | WILD STORM #2 |
7 | MARVEL COMICS | SPIDER-MAN #14 |
8 | DC COMICS | TRINITY #7 |
9 | DC COMICS | JUSTICE LEAGUE #17 |
10 | DC COMICS | NIGHTWING #17 |
Our most pre-ordered comic ever jumped straight in at number 4 as American Gods got off to a great start (and fully went for 'that' scene at the end of issue #1!) - Why only #4 in the chart? About half the orders are yet to be picked up (possibly as we have seen new customers picking it up who don't often read comics and are not rushed to read asap?)
Wild Storm held up well for issue #2 despite it actually having very low pull list numbers - almost all copies sold from the shelves - Glad we kept the numbers up for issue #2!
DC had a great week (although they did have a release snafu where LOADS of their books came out last week) - Hands up though we didn't order enough of Action Comics for the Superman cross-over - plenty of the final part this week though!
Outside the top 10 Super Sons #2 seems to have lost some readers after issue #1 - again it didn't get many pull list adds like Wild Storm but doesn't seem to have moved from the shelves either - puzzling, but we will give it another couple of issues to settle down. Kill Or Be Killed dropped down to #12 but mainly because of DC's plentiful release week rather than losing readers.
That's all for now but click HERE to see what comics you should all be reading upon release tomorrow!
