Retailers Can't Get Enough Metal, Hulks Or Valerian, In Advance Reorders
Greetings from the coal face of the direct comics market. Where retailers try to increase their orders of certain comics ahead of sale. Where supply and demand and most accurately reflected, where you can see which books are hot, where new orders are coming in and how retailers are reacting to new, unanticipated desire! And courtesy of stats from Diamond Comic Distributors.
The performance of Dark Days: The Casting #1 has driven a massive upping of reorders by comic book stores of Dark Nights: Metal and a B&W preview of Generations: Hulks has driven advance reorders of that title as well. Strong performances from Walking Dead, X-Men Gold, Batman – and for comics already published, the complete Valerian collection ahad of the upcoming movie seems to have excited many a retailer. The drop in price from $34.99 to the new price of $29.99 may have helped.
