Who had this to say…
- Dr No's: Four for DC (including the top two slots, held by Batman and Death Metal respectively), five for Marvel, and one for Image as Stillwater continues to top Image's sales charts in our store. Rorschach has already dropped out of the top ten as customers express dissatisfaction with the pace and focus of the storyline; readers who were eager to see more Rorschach after Doomsday Clock aren't finding what they want in the pages of this new series. Bendis's finale on Superman didn't generate any real excitement–makes us long for the Rebirth days when Superman was always near the top of our sales charts. Miskatonic took a big fall for us as Lovecraft fans who eagerly sampled the first issue dropped the title as of the second issue, saying it didn't really "get" Lovecraft.
- Ssalefish Comics: Much bigger week from DC this time around, with Dark Nights Death Metal, Batman, and Justice League occupying our top 3 spots respectively. Star Wars Darth Vader continues to maintain uncannily high sales numbers — previous iterations of the series also performed well but had tapered off in popularity a bit by now. Then again, it's a good time to be a Star Wars fan, so we suspect that it has a little something to do with it. All in all, it was a busier week than last, which is nice, considering the weeks leading up to Christmas have been slim-pickings in the past.
- Collector's Paradise: Brubaker & Phillips new OGN RECKLESS sold really well for us.
- Rodman Comics: Death Metal still rocks!
