300,000 Not Enough? The Three Jokers #1 Gets a Second Printing

It was DC Publisher and CCO Jim Lee who stated that Batman: The Three Jokers #1 by Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok had orders of 300,000 copies from DC Comics. Lots of folks tried to square that number away, wondering if there were – like The Magic Order – 100,000 in a warehouse somewhere. If Walmart had a bunch. Or if the cardstock covers could be cut out to provide facemasks. Well, it looks like it is going to be even more, as DC Comics are to publish a second printing coming to comic book stores for October 13th, 2020.

It probably won't sell another 300,000. But might put on an additional 50,000 if the market will bear it. No cover details yet, but this is what the previous ones were all looking like at one point. But the other question is – how many comic shops are actually out of The Three Jokers #1? More than we thought? Might it have had a greater sell-through than some suspected?
