If you ever wondered how many books Kirkman can move...

http://www.bleedingcool.com/2014/07/11/why-kirkman-and-azacetas-outcast-1-wasnt-in-junes-top-ten-explained/

 

So print run automatically is 10% less for returnable issues? How does this make sense? I thought this was print run, not issues in circulation?

 

Also, I could be wrong, but one LCS told me they are only 3-4 weeks out on pre-orders. General public is 2 months.

HQ #7 (Bombshell) and MD #7 (McFarlane/Silvestri) had specialty covers but Sex Criminals is moving up naturally. Quite impressive imo.

Has Original Sin been any good? Is it just getting the Marvel Event book treatment, or is it actually a solid read? I debate picking it up at the store sometimes…

 

Oh and is anyone reading Tec? My LCS guy said the new creative team has done a nice job taking the book back to basics and it is really good. He ordered me the first few issues and I'm hoping they come in today so I can read it straight through.

Is Bombshell just one variant cover? 30K is a HUGE PR for a variant.

[the authority]

Black Science is up 13% this month and passed EOW up for the number 3 spot behind TWD and Saga in Image comics not numbered 1 or 2.

[the authority]

Low #1 came in at 43,000 plus. Very nice.

[the authority]

Spread #1 at 21,500 is way too low imo. I thought people would have gone heavy on the orders. Very good book.

[the authority]

Southern Bastards drops 17%.

 

I thought the numbers on this would stay higher. This story is great imo.

[the authority]

Manifest Destiny #8 takes a 30% dip and all of it thanks to super high orders on the McFarlane cover. Another winner story.

[the authority]

Rat Queens #7 up 12% and I think its heading way higher.

Is that from #2 to #3? We should see some stability at #4 or #5 and then a slow and steady rise if it captures the readers.

Rat Queens #6 up 12% and I think its heading way higher.

 

I was just coming here to say the same thing. Look at the trade sales for RQ. It was #11 last month. That is why issue 6 is heating up so much.

Not sure what you mean.

The number would include the regular and bombshell covers.

Thanks for the correction. I could see this book getting back over 20,000

15,000 on issue #8 is pretty good number considering #1 was 17,000.

 

I mean ..look at Clone ...

[the authority]

I know Enormous #1 has been mentioned in it's own thread but seeing the number under 5,000 in print is crazy. It is a quality book that I would think would have been 20-25,000 copies if it were under the Image banner. I wish I'd bought more.

Yeah. Issue #6 was 14,851 and #8 was 15,060. It is still trending up (thumbs u
