Well, looks like ‘Regular Show’ #1 has sold out and will be getting a second print. It sold through its 56,000 copies at Diamond Comics Distributors. Stores may still have copies but they cannot reorder through Diamond. This book appeared twice on the Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder list in April (due to a delay in shipping.) ‘Regular Show’ sold out in two days and has been Boom Studios fastest selling and biggest selling single issue to date, beating previous champ ‘Adventure Time.’
where did you get the 56,000 Diamond sales data ? thanks
Here is the press release:

Quintel, has sold out at the distributor level in 48 hours and the publisher had to rush to a second printing. Initial orders for the first issue were the highest of any KaBOOM! series to date.
Comic book fans should keep in mind first printings of REGULAR SHOW #1, which shipped with six main covers, may still be found at the local comic shop nearest you. Not sure where to find your nearest comic retailer? Use comicshoplocator.com or findacomicshop.com to find one!
The highly anticipated series is written by web cartoonist K.C. Green (GUNSHOW) and illustrated by newcomer Allison Strejlau.

But when you’re livin’ in as crazy a world as they are, no day can be called…regular!
