Where were you when DC made Marvel their bitch?
Where were you when DC made Marvel their bitch?
Now show the other 40 comics in the top 50.
Superman? Detective Comics? Nightwing? Wonder Woman? Green Lantern?
All missing.
a toast! to detective comics comics aka DC Comics!
so what DC’s in first place, they’re not in 4th or 6th place!
How fells your shit company is selling better than the other shitty company after decades?
Cheers
What's more impressive, selling 7 really popular books, or selling 35 slightly less popular books?
I can tell you which one makes more money.
Nothing Marvel sells is only "slightly" less than the 400,000 copies that Batman #158 sold.
I didn't realize Absolute Manhunter is a mini. Probably for the best.
Let's try this again when the Q1 results are out.
what’s more impressive, selling the most popular books or a bunch of mid selling books??
It is, but I believe it was extended to 12 issues.
Marvel has raped DC for years in terms of market share. One single month doesn't change that. Wait until we see numbers.
Who cares about all the losers?
Brand wars are stupid. Just enjoy comics you like
Hasn't marvel basically always won market share due to their "flood the stands" strategy they've been doing basically their entire life?
Pretty much yeah. They publish the most books ergo they have the biggest markeshare...even though nobody is reading that shit. See their Star Wars comics.
DC won a few times with the post-crisis relaunch and New 52, but yeah, it's been Marvel's market ever since the Shooter era. Even during the late 90s/early 00s climbing-out-of-bankruptcy years when Marvel was publishing the least amount of books, they were still on top.
This is the same tactic Marvel did in the early 90s only without the speculator market to bolster it.
nostalgia cashgrab at #1
Meh.
Marvel will literally be back in no time. Absolute Flash martian and green lantern are #1s aka padding/outliers.
it it it it it it’s just that they’re the first issue by issue 5 it’ll be out of the top 100
This cope again
Yes, that's why they do constant relaunches and lots and lots of variants. It keeps their lead even if it is artificial
Even in the Bookscan sales whatever market dollar share lead they have is because they pump out lots of high-priced Omnibus volumes rather than number of books sold
Marvel just relaunched ASM cause the sales are in the toilet. You have no right to complain about "muh #1's". Meanwhile, IDW Sonic has been running since April 2018. That's three volumes of Amazing Spider-bitch.
Why do your ongoings keep failing? Why are they worse than a licensed tie-in comic?
I kind of have a point though. #1s always have high sales that drop off as time goes on. You really think martian Manhunter will keep high sales going forward? By that same principle the ultimate books have been around longer so while flash mm and GL just launched and are experiencing #1 sales and variant cover autism ultimate black panther ultimates ultimate x men etc are in double digit issue numbers so the numbers have leveled off. It's almost a guarantee that absolute flash mm and GL will not sell as much as absolute trinity once the numbers normalize simply because wonder woman batman and superman are more popular and recognizable characters.
IDW has 4% market share and Marvel doesn't let any title of theirs reach three digits these days unless they're celebrating some legacy milestone.
You really think martian Manhunter will keep high sales going forward?
Nope but you have zero right to criticize when Marvel's flagship book can't keep its sales up and has to reboot every so often. It's hilarious when this happens to Carol Danvers (who's a C-list mind you). It's embarrassing when it happens to Spider-bitch. Your A-list character can't keep it up for more than 70 issues.
Now why hasn't IDW Sonic needed to reboot? Because it sells well for its tier (licensed tie-in comic = C-list) and enough that they don't need to speculator money from a relaunch every couple years. You can't even complain about the variant covers cause ASM does that too. Why is Spider-man so weak?
You're the guy in this comic.
Not a single one of these is good.
No one cares what you think, NPContrarian
No, is the guy in the comic
Nobody reads comics, let me know when DC starts beating them at movies and games and shit again
holy damage control batman
Let's see, 2011, I was probably on Anon Babble shitposting about it
Is it safe to say DC is back?
Selling 7 really popular ones
DC being single digit in percentage below Marvel is insane. It used to be double digits and at one point even close to half of Marvel's market share.
it's all absolute shit
The only good one out of these is Martian Manhunter
defending NPC comics while calling others NPCs
lmao
Fuck you I hope you die
No one cares about comics, that's chump change. The real money is in cinema
