November 2007 Sales Charts & Market Share Report

Oh my God, I just threw up a little. Billy Tan's Uncanny X-Men sold better than Chris Bachalo's X-Men.

 

I'm amazed that even Heroes was able to beat a new Alan Moore release for highest-selling graphic novel.

I'm surprised at the decent-sized disparity between UXM & X-Men and the two other titles, given that this is a sequential crossover. I really can't see just buying one or two parts of it. Not that every book hasn't gotten an impressive jump out of it (they're definitely outgunning the Ra's al Ghul crossover in the Bat-titles).

For the first time in a while, the X-Men have the Avengers outgunned in the top 10 titles.

Countdown selling higher than Captain America makes baby Jesus cry. Although Cap seems to be continuing its stabilization in the mid-70s.

I'll be interested to see how Simone's Wonder Woman does over the next couple of months in terms of sales. Since the book is actually good now, hopefully she'll keep it reasonably high up.

That's always the case; UXM naturally sells higher. It's the flagship X-title.

 

"Mid-70's"?

 

70,000 units.

 

Ah. I thought you meant position-wise.

 

Popularity and bland accessibility always trump quality.

 

Wow, look at Buffy, go.

 

Van Damme-it I can't get to Newsarama today. Someone print em!

Wow. That could've been done a much better way.

 

Seriously, lol

 

The Agreement Club is going strong.

 

I call President

 

Wow behold the power of Messiah Complex. Go X-Men, it's about freaking time.

 

You're like, 3 days late and about $13 dollars short.

 

Thor's still in the top 10 despite its monstrous delay. I am happy.

 

Seeing Thor high in the charts is great.

Order is still selling more than Ms Marvel,so this baby should be sticking around.

 

It's slipped a couple spots, I'm losing hope that the first 10 issues will all sell in the top 10

 

Wow, really didn't expect Thor to keep selling so well.

 

Me, either. I wonder how long it'll last.

 

Certainly, a villain needs to show up if they want to keep the high numbers going.

 

The sales will definitely slip once the first arc is over. So, at this rate, around this time next year.

 

Oh well, I'll just enjoy it while it lasts. Hopefully it doesn't fall beyond #40 or 50 or whatever the magic number is that keeps Marvel comics from being canceled.

 

As long as JMS is writing this, it's not in any danger of being canceled.
