April saw a 15 percent drop in sales

ICV2 reports that last month's sales saw a decrease by 15 percent in sales of pamphlets. And on the sales chart, it's still pretty stagnant. Although Brightest Day #0 sold about 129,000 copies, it still sold even less than Blackest Night. The new volume of the Flash only sold 100,903 copies, which is even less than what the 600th issue of Amazing Spider-Man sold. Speaking of which, there were only 2 issues of Amazing Spider-Man that came out last month, which suggests that with post-OMD sales floundering more and more, they're going to eventually have to cut back to once a month again.

And it tells us how the industry is continuing its sad slide into extinction, thanks to their refusal to maintain any kind of decent policy in writing.

Look recent saying is becoming more obvious: It's not the kids are alright, The kids are all WHITE.

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.
