Resisting the temptation to fill this article with "I Am Groot,I Am Groot,I Am Groot," Marvel seem to have a hit on their hands (although there were none of the usual Batman / Flash / Secret Empire releases this week), selling out apart from a few variant covers. It actually beat All New Guardians in it's first week (although ANGotG has continued to sell well from the shelves).
Secret Empire continued to have legs with #2 charting again ( and #1 was still in top 15)
Redneck retained all readers from issue #1 but as the reprint of issue #1 is not yet available didn't get past those numbers despite a bigger order for #2.
Deathstroke saw a bump from the Lazarus Project crossover (it is the weakest seller from the three title event).
JLA continues to gain readers slowly from a poor start and is now a mid-range seller for DC :)
Lastly, the Anderson 1-shot Dredd movie sequel snuck in to the top 10 - we got plenty of this as it is likely to have a good shelf life (and a Jock cover)
That's it for this week - You can find the titles hitting next week's chart HERE
See you in the store soon!
