Sales slipped again last month

ICV2 reports that comic sales appear to have gone down again. Looking at the sales chart here, even those still selling above 100,000 have dropped considerably. Secret Invasion went down to 154,675 copies, while Final Crisis went down to just 115,666, making it one of the lowest selling crossovers to date. It's to be seen whether it'll be selling over 100,000 by the time its done.

I see that New Avengers has dropped below 100,000 copies for possibly the first time since Brian Bendis began writing it, which hopefully suggests that Bendis is losing influence. Some of the books shown cost nearly 4 dollars, which could be another factor in the sad but understandable decline of the pamphlet.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
