Top 100 Comics For May 2012
Say what you like about the $3.99 price point, but everyone seems to buy into it. The top four books are all $3.99, the fifth is a $4.99.
Say, could that be where we're headed next?
If Batman sales hold similar between issues 8 and 9, then one could estimate sales to North American shops of Avengers Vs X-Men #4 at around the 170,000 which would be a leap on April's 160,000 estimate., Plus around ten to fifteen percent uptick for Diamond UK sales, of course.
Of course, Night Of The Owls may be affecting the figure, lets take something more stable, like Fantastic Four. If sales remained relatively the same between issues 605 and 606, then Avengers Vs X-Men #5 would be around 180,000. Which, adding UK sales, would push it over 20,000.
There is of course quite a drop off after that, but it still puts a comic like Action Comics #9 into the 90,000-100,000 bracket… things are still looking good. Next month? Let's see how Before Watchmen and Spider-Men affect the numbers…
