The Graphic Novels That Sold Over 100,000 Copies In Bookstores In 2024

Graphic novels selling over 100,000 in bookstores, Dog Man, Amulet, Cat Kid, Wings Of Fire, Baby-Sitters Club, Five Nights At Freddy's & Smile

These are the children's comic books that sold over a hundred thousand copies in print in 2024 in the bookstore market in North America, as recorded by NPD BookScan, which tracks approximately 85% of the print market. Dav Pilkey's Dog Man: The Scarlet Shedder released in March sold just under 1.3 million copies, the best selling children's book of the year. Dog Man and, to a lesser extent, Cat Kid dominated, with two Dog Man releases in 2024 topping sales, with the backlist filling much of the rest of it. But also a strong presence for the Amulet, Baby-Sitters Club and Wings Of Fire graphic novels, with Five Nights at Freddy's and Smile making it in. And every single one published by Scholastic/Graphix, at this stage establishing them as the biggest publisher of print comics in the world. Forget the Big Two, when it comes to comics in America there is the Big One.
