Why isn't The New Avengers #31 heating up? This issue revealed that

Dr. Doom is Rabum Alal (the Great Destroyer), and is the reason why the Marvel Universe is ending in May. Plus, Dr. Doom looks completely kick butt, and is the leader of the Black Swans... And it needs to answer how he is the catalyst of this event that started in Issue #1, when he just disappeared two issues ago...

 

Maybe because any (possibly) stupid batch idea crossing the mind of a writer does not necessarily become an instantly canonized narrative innovation? (:

 

Especially when retroactive continuity starts bordering the ridiculous… and I can’t even start to count for how long this has been happening.

So the best selling comic of February?

Come on, guess...

 

 

 

 

Orphan Black.

Say what?!?!!

Orphan Black was in a Loot Crate, correct? That would account for the bulk of the print run.

 

Ah, that makes sense.

Still pretty impressive.

Sg 34 was hard to find when it first came out....maybe doomed storyline completists want it.

A low print in terms of what? Its low printed compared to earlier in the series when the book was selling over 30k copies, but it had a significantly larger print run than the previous lows in the series.

Periodically you see books like this.

 

Last example I could give would be Batgirl 14 2010. Print run wasn't much different not a lot changed in the book, but it sells well and you wont find it much.

Low for DC, but it's still above Justice League Dark surprisingly.

It used to happen with Marvel's X crossovers as well. Story collectors bid up the lower print run titles in the crossover.

Yeah that's just another cross section of buyers that might want a book - Set collectors.

 

Really you can have several

 

Speculators

Set Collectors

Upgraders

Core Character Fans

TV Crossover(This one will be new)

I'll say it again lady killer is doing very well. I do have a few copies for full disclosure. My girlfriend really really likes the book which is usually a good sign.

 

Sales of $30-50+ for 1 1st print. $35 plus shipping on the boards earlier today. (shrug) Last time I posted in this thread about this book it was ignored, and it was only selling for $10-15 about a month ago.

I love that book.

It's a very fun read, with outright gorgeous art.
