This is the Top Ten Bleeding Cool Bestseller List, as compiled by a number of comic stores from their sales on Wednesday and Thursday. It measures what are known as the "Wednesday Warriors", those who can't wait to the weekend to get this week's comics. We salute you, and the keenness you bring to your passion.

And a lot of unhappy retailers this week… next week they may be positively suicidal.

1. Deadpool vs. Thanos #2
2. Kanan #6
3. Grayson #12
4. Fight Club 2 #5
5. Years of Future Past #5
6. Flash #44
7. Deathstroke #10
8. Scooby Doo Team Up #12
9. Harley Quinn & Power Girl #4
10. We Are Robin #4

Thanks to the following retailers,

Rodman Comics of Ankeny, Iowa

Fat Jack's Comicrypt of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Who had this to say,

Harsh week. Very slow. Wish DC had done another 3D cover month. This time just have the main DC heroes in 3D. The villians got the 3D treatment why not the heroes? Marvel's delay of their New 52 version really has the readership upset. People are calling asking why Secret Wars is so late.

Man….this was probably the worst release week in a loooong time. Deadpool vs. Thanos made the top spot for us, but compared to other weeks it would have been in the bottom of our top ten. The rest of our list was a good mix between DC, Marvel, Image, and even some Dark Horse books, but hopefully next week is a little better.

Decent sales week. Deadpool Vs Thanos #2 had the top spot since it had 4 covers. Scooby Doo Team-Up #12 would have been #1 if i had ordered more than 50 copies. They were all gone by noon.
Previews actually magazine out sold most regular issues which means it must be a month with 5 Wed's.

The usual suspects moved on the back-issue market. Deadpool,Suicide Squad and Harley Quinn. The only pleasant surprise was a Steranko run of Shield issues moved early in the week.

Gwenpool variants are in demand. Deadpool still popular.

DC still struggles to hit the Top Ten–it takes a mediocre Marvel week to give them the chance to place at all!
