What's the best series that noone is reading? 0

[Jordysnordy]

Looking at the latest monthly sales figures made me wonder what's the best series that no one is reading.

I am really enjoying Conan the Slayer by Dark Horse but last months sales are a lowly 8657.

Since Dark Horse picked up Conan, they have consistently done good work with the character.

This is probably the lowest on the latest month that I read people talking about:

286 Sheriff of Babylon 11 $3.99 DC 5,177

Sheriff of Babylon is fantastic. It's a travesty that only it only sold just under 5200 copies last month. Issue 12 is the last issue, but Tom King's work on this series is something that I think will last the test of time. Vision was amazing.

 

The other book that I feel is worth mentioning is Revival. Tim Seeley's writing, Mike Norton's art and Jenny Frison's covers make for a fantastic experience. At over 40 issues, I am surprised that it came in at # 291 on Comichron with only 5130 issues sold. I met Tim and Jenny a couple of weeks ago and they gave me a copy of the 1st deluxe hardcover of the series. I read it on Sunday and have to say that I'm hooked.

Is anyone reading Walt Simonson's Ragnarok? I think it's a blast, zombie Thor in a post-apocalyptic Asgard. How about Alan Moore's Providence? Super creepy and deeply layered. I doubt either of these is selling much.

Black Hammer, Black Eyed Kids, and Briggs Land. Dark Horse is slowly becoming a top 2 company for me and Aftershock is very nice too.

Briggs Land is pretty good.

An extremely talented writer. I've just finished The Vision and I'm part way through The Omega Men. Looking forward to reading Sheriff of Babylon after that.

A lot of Valiant titles. One in particular that I think has been great is Britannia. Great history in the book, very bloody. This has been my favorite Valiant book in a long time.

I'll second Black Hammer - I've enjoyed each issue.

I am digging Ragnarok as well. I am 2 issues behind I think but am in for the duration.

I've been pleasantly surprised by Vertigo in general lately... Sheriff of Babylon, Unfollow and Clean Room have all been great.

They've been pretty good for the last few years actually. Royals: Masters of War was pretty good too.

This was Sixth Gun for quite some time.

Not sure how the print runs were toward the end.

A number of local shops didn't even waste the time with the last issue (I'm sure cost was another major reason for that).

Nailbiter and The Woods

I haven't thought of Nailbiter in a long time, I didn't even realize it was still going. Maybe I'll grab some trades.

[chrisco37]

Easy....it was Batman 66.

Nailbiter, Postal, The Black Hood, Lady Killer 2

Ragnarok is awesome and ditto on Providence.

Awe to the some.

I'm liking Valiant's Wrath of the Eternal Warrior. I didn't think there was anything more they could do with the character but Robert Venditti is proving me wrong. I will have to buy some of the others listed above and give them a read also.
