Who had this to say…
- Rodman Comics: Diamond was late, arriving on Wednesday, sales were really bad Wednesday.
- Ssalefish Comics: Amazing Spider-Man and Detective Comics went toe to toe this week with Detective almost taking the top spot. Way down the list and barely qualifying was Batman Killing Time, I don't know if it is Batman fatigue or Tom King's name being poison to a lot of our customers but I could believe it is both. Suicide Squad got a push from War for Earth-3. I'm hoping people realize this is a good book and the numbers stay higher after the crossover.
