Who had this to say…

Rodman's Comics: Batman took the top spot. Devil's Reign did amazingly well. It might have taken first place had I ordered more. I thought I ordered high enough on it, though I was wrong. It sold out on Wednesday and we have reordered it. Marvel please keep the numbering simple with your titles. Many people were confused with the Amazing Spider-Man 80bey on the cover believing they already had the issue thinking it was issue 80 instead of being a new issue. Mother Goose did incredibly well and is on reorder. Hellions made it in the top ten and I enjoyed the heck out of the issue. Very good sales week.
Ssalesfish: Batman secured the top spot with a extra lead because of the 3 covers, specifically the Todd McFarlane homage by Viktor Bogdanovic. Inferno has been selling roughly the same numbers if not some times a little more than each issue of X-men. People are really loving the new Spider-man book. Devil's Reign was a surprise sell-out hit and Crimson Reign is running low on the shelf as I type this.
