Don’t get too excited by that $45 sale of #17…that was the virgin store exclusive cover…not the trade dress.
Batman continues it’s nose dive in sales.
“Well, Diamond has confirmed to Bleeding Cool, ahead of this Sunday’s Top 100 list and Monday’s Top 500 list that Batman #75 was only the 13th most-ordered comic book by the direct market in North America in July 2010. And the 11th highest revenue raiser.”
Hold that, it appears the two covers will be listed separately due to the cover price and that will require math to figure the final standings for any DC books with the $1 higher covers from now on it appears. I’m wondering if Comichron will combine them for us and do the math or not?
TOP 10 COMIC BOOKS BY UNITS SHIPPED
1 HOUSE OF X #1
2 POWERS OF X #1
3 AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #25
4 THE WALKING DEAD #193
5 BATMAN: LAST KNIGHT ON EARTH #2
6 BATMAN: CURSE OF THE WHITE KNIGHT #1
7 THE BATMAN WHO LAUGHS #7
8 BLACK CAT #2
9 IMMORTAL HULK #20
10 BATMAN #74
That also confirms we may never know Walking Dead 193’s total print run since all the initial orders, reorders and second printings should be mashed together into the total for #4. Large enough to tank the price but not enough to top the Spiders and Mutants.
I was going to say the $1 price hike didn’t help Batman’s stats. I’m sure many shops kept their regular qty for As and reduced their qty for Bs.
There’s a new article at the evil place now saying in the future Diamond’s going to start combining books with different numbers into one stat. I’m not actually in favor of that as much as I would be if it was just a different new stat added. I like the idea we can tell how many A’s and B’s are on the street separately. DCeased took a big hit as well I’d assume splitting the print between 3 covers with two different prices.
