Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

That was pretty cool. Sim, Gaiman, and Moore were quite the coup.

 

If Stephen Platt was allegedly getting $40,000 per issue of Prophet, I'm sure McFarlane gave these guys a similar Payday.

 

Yeah but the Stephen Platt thing was a one off. They had to convince him to leave Marvel, which was why Liefeld bought him a Dodge Viper, (the year it came out) to convince him.

 

I imagine Image payed high, but I don't think they would have been paying $40,000 an issue.

 

Spawn was selling a hell of a lot more than Prophet was though, so by scale it's not too far fetched to think these guys got paid somewhere near that amount.

 

[Awax]

What isn't optioned for tv anymore???

 

Punisher vs Archie miniseries

 

Give it time Jimmy, give it time...

 

It's taken me about four years to put these piles together

 

 

if Fred Hembeck or Punisher Vs Archie ever become movies than I am rich.

 

(stupid milite glare, plus who milites garbage like this? I do. )

 

 

My punisher vs archie is in a mylite2 and full back.

[Zack1973]

Punisher Vs Archie should have had a special bullet hole variant, instead of the die cut book.

Zero?

 

 

, that book sucks, rad issue #1 dropped it right away.

 

Zero is probably the best title from Image in 2013. EoW is a close 2nd.

 

Readers dont support that opinion currently

 

Zero

1 - 20189

2 - 9847

3 - 8340

4 - 8046

5 - 6922

 

 

No, it just means that there are two million monkeys reading DC, Marvel, or well known names from the indies. It was the best book from Image last year.

I though this series had it's moment in the sun? Is there a reason why they are selling for this much?

Apparently the game had some DLC release that was amazing. And the extra content tied in heavily with the comics.

 

Some of the minis based on videogames sell pretty well, like inFamous and Uncharted.

Looking at these numbers is only part of the story these days.

Even though they're losing print subscribers, maybe they're gaining digital subscribers each month?

It's like looking at someone's Soundscan album sales decrease, but forgetting about iTunes.

Agreed and sales of the of the EoW trade are as follows,

Novemeber 1365

December 1765

January 2061

 

looks like its picking up readers to me. Speculation seems to have skewed the numbers but this is a great story.

Possibly, it's also somewhat due to how much money people have. Image for one keeps releasing about half a dozen new books a month.

[krighton]

Would be nice if comichron had a column showing digital sales along side floppies.

[Gothopia]

Just a heads up...White Suits #1 from Dark Horse already sold out online at Midtown.

Mini-Series

Barbiere/Cypress

First Appearance I believe is in Dark Horse Presents Volume 2 #11.

There is a Francavilla variant for that issue as well.
