BEST SELLING COMICS in a world without DC and Marvel July 2014
BEST SELLING COMICS in a world without DC and Marvel July 2014 – report by Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com

This will give us a better perception of how well the other publishers sell and what titles and characters actually compete with Marvel/DC sales numbers. After reading this chart you may have a new appreciation for the smaller publishers who bring a wider and unique variety of titles to our comic shops each week.

THE HOT COMIC CALENDAR
By comic book historian Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com – hoknes@hotmail.com
As a comic book historian I love keeping track of stats.
So I thought it would be interesting to keep a solid log of every single comic that goes up in value.
This calendar is a log of every comic that suddenly becomes hotter and jumps in value with an actual date.
This list should be continually updated and I hope others will add any comics that I may have missed.
Over a period of time we can look for trends and make interesting comparisons
Here is the 2014 Hot Comic Calendar Continue reading “THE HOT COMIC CALENDAR”
