Point de vue sur les ventes qui permet de voir le Top 200
https://www.comicbookrevolution.com/march-2024-single-issue-comic-book-sales-rankings/

Ca reste un peu tôt mais les 3 titres ultimates sont dans le top 10 dont le 2eme numéro de black panther qui dans sa version 616 arrive rarement a rester dans le top 50 si ce n est aujourd hui dans le top 100 et même 150.

La franchise Hasbro se porte bien chez Kirkman

> 6 Transformers #6

> 18 Cobra Commander #3
>
> 25 Void Rivals #7

Avengers Twilight est un réussite commerciale (et je trouve aussi qualitative)

Pour la franchise avengers je note deux souci

> 82 Captain America #7
>
> 109 Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver #2

cap revient direct au classement de la précédente série (et on en a qu une donc moins de thunes) et je trouve que c est justifié (pas pour la précédete).
Quelle erreur ce relaunch pour scarlet witch.. la série était dans le top 50 sans quicksilever et là ca dérape completement. Alors c est qu une mini mais que va donner le relaunch qui suit? est ce que ca n aurauit pas été plus haut en simple arc de la érie précédente?

Green Lantern comme à décrocher

J ai bien aimé Tbolts.. je suis le seul et donc ca sent pas bon pour un quelconque retour de cette version. Le film permettra surement une nouvelel chance mais bon..

Bon Black Panther continue de creuser en dessous de tout ce qu aucun titre marvel est allé (en général ca fait un bail que la série devrait être arrêtée). Heureusement Captain Marvel creuse plus profond
Chez DC penguin doit etre un echec.. outsiders aussi.. bon j ai pas lu mais je sens que les nom de laznig/Kelly font fuir.. bon un petit passage sur les mutants leur feront du bien.. tout s achète avec un X ou un spider.. même si c est écrit avec les pieds et ils ecrivent bien mieux que ca.

Voir Flash et Green Arrow dans ls titres du bas c est assez surprenant aussi. J ai lu quelques Green Arrow et je trouvais ca pas mal.. y a quand même bien pire sur le marché. Le premier Flash m a pas convaincu mais bon de là en être là aussi.

Top 50 d'avril
https://icv2.com/articles/markets/view/56863/top-50-comics-april-2024
Bloodhunt arrive en 6 mais la red band est 14eme
Ultimate spidey et xmen et même Panther continuent de fonctionner comme transformers
Wolvie/deadpool commence fort
Avengers Twilight grime depuis numéro pour revenir dans le top 10. C est assez rare pour noter une série qui progresse en vente(même si c est pareil pour Ultimate BP)

Les top de mars et avril semblent compliqué avec de multiples titres comme Thor ou captain America qui ont leur ventes partagés entre les mois.. et donc le classement ne dit pas grand chose.

Blood hunt finit bas mais là aussi comment savoir si sans la version red band il serait pas bien plus haut ou pas?
Le EC epitaph de Oni est 35eme!
Captain America revient dans le top 50 sans que je sache pourquoi.. (pas de tie ins. rien de marketting.. et bon c est pas la qualité du titre qui fait revenir. Je dis pas que c est nul mais de là a fair emieux que le volume précédent..)

Le point sur Cap permet de mettre en valeur sur le top 200, un changement dans la "bataille des franchises" evidemment Xmen prend la premiere place mais spidey ou batman ne sont pas second?

The X-Men franchise took first place with five comics in the Top 10, six comics in the Top 25, and seven comics in the Top 50.

The Avengers franchise took second place with one comic in the Top 10, four comics in the Top 25, and six comics in the Top 50.

The Batman franchise took third place with zero comics in the Top 10, one comics in the Top 25, and six comics in the Top 50.

The Spider-Man franchise took fourth place with two comics in the Top 10, four comics in the Top 25, and five comics in the Top 50.

The Ultimate Universe took fifth place with three comics in the Top 10, four comics in the Top 25, and four comics in the Top 50.

This is a big shakeup in the Battle of the Franchises. We have not seen the Spider-Man franchise this low in the battle results in a very long time.

Les franchises Ghost machine et hasbro se portent bien

Scarle with sort du top 50 avec son #2.. le double relaunch est bien un echec..
Si la tendance se poursuit.. ca va faire mal avec une sortie du top 100 au plus tard au 5 (mais possible dés le 3)

Image Comics had thirty-nine dead titles walking out of Image Comics’ fifty-two new comics in July 2024. This means that 75% of the new Image Comics titles in July 2024 were dead titles walking.

Captain Marvel c est une catastrophe.. ca n a jamais bien vendu mais là ca a fait pire que le Panther de Eve Ewing... On comprend l arrêt soudain..
Je ne sais pas si le titre spiderwoman est déjà arrêté.. mais il va suivre

j ai entendu du bien du titre outsiders que je dois lire mais il va durer eternellement. Catwoman me semble bien bas.. GL ne peut plus soutenir deux titres mensuels.. et harley quinn ou batman dark ages sont une vraie surprise a cette place..

Les mutants reprennent leurs droits en tête des charts (mais bon on est qu aux 1 voire au 2). Ultilmate et Batman tiennent bon. J ai l impression que Spidey décroche.
Alien Vs Avengers 14eme? ca me parait etre un echec...
Wonder Woman tient bien (bon c est un tie in Absolute power mais )

126 Venom War Zombiotes #1 (Venom War)

Venom War had one comic in the Top 10, one comic in the Top 25, and three comics in the Top 50.

Venom War #1 had an impressive debut taking the number 5 spot. This five-issue mini-series from Al Ewing looks like it is going to be a sales hit. Having said that, while the main title in Venom War was a huge sales success, the tie-in titles all had unimpressive debut numbers.

166 Absolute Power Task Force VII #3 (Of 7) (Resolicitation)

Absolute Power had two comics in the Top 10, three comics in the Top 25, and four comics in the Top 50. This was better/worse/flat than July 2024 when Absolute Power had zero comics in the Top 10, three comics in the Top 25, and six comics in the Top 50.

Absolute Power #2 climbed from the number 15 spot to the number 7 spot. This is what I expected from this four-issue big event. Absolute Power’s debut issue got caught up in an odd shipping schedule for the June 2024 and July 2024 rankings. I would expect Absolute Power to remain a Top 10 seller.

Absolute Power Task Force VII #4 climbed from the number 98 spot to the number 62 spot. Absolute Power Task Force VII #5 then fell to the number 107 spot.

Absolute Power Origins #2 fell from the number 88 spot to the number 130 spot. This three-issue mini-series has been a total sales failure. Everyone outside of a DC editor knew this was going to happen. John Ridley is a Hollywood guy who has never had sales success in mainstream superhero comics. And this title centers on Amanda Waller who is just not as popular as DC Comics thinks she is. Obviously, this mini-series will conclude well into the Dead Titles Walking category.

Absolute power est donc un succés le début était coincé entre 2 mois.
Venom wars sera un succés pour la mini mais n arrive pas a entrainer les tiens ins crées.

Captain America #12 plummeted from the number 43 spot to the number 140 spot. This is the lowest that we have seen this JMS title since it debuted.

On dirait que le titre plonge sous la periode Kelly/Lazing

Scarlet witch sort du TOP 75 (84)
je suis pas le seul à s interroger sur les eux relaunchs et leur effet... Orlando devait pas avoir eu un titre aussi vendeur que la première série...
Alors certes ca fera un long run en tout et un gain asuré pour Marvel. Mais je pense que le titre serait mieux classé sans ces artifices et que donc sur la longueur ca aurait ete mieux...

Dead Titles Walking
Based on historical numbers from the Comichron as well as projections through April 2022, titles outside of the Top 100 are usually selling under the 18,000 unit sales mark. These are the Marvel Comics and DC Comics titles that are dead titles walking.

Image Comics had forty-one dead titles walking out of Image Comics’ fifty-four new titles in August 2024. This means that 76% of the new Image Comics titles in August 2023 were dead titles walking.

This was up from the thirty-nine dead titles that Image Comics had in July 2024 which comprised 75% of Image Comics’ new titles.

This highlights the importance of profitable licenses from Hasbro and Universal since all of the other random indie titles from Image Comics fail to even make the Top 200.

Image Comics took third place with twenty-five new comics in the Top 200 in August 2024.

BOOM! Studios had eighteen dead titles walking out of BOOM! Studios’ nineteen new titles in August 2024. This means that 95% of the new BOOM! Studios titles in August 2023 were dead titles walking.

It is disappointing to see how poorly the Power Rangers titles are performing. The Power Rangers should be a valuable license. One needs to only look over at Image Comics, Dynamite Entertainment, and IDW Publishing to see how properties from the 1960s-1990s can perform well in the Top 200.

Having said that, I am not surprised that the two Power Rangers titles are dead titles walking. The farther BOOM! Studios gets away from the classic Power Rangers and the more “modern” their take on the Power Rangers gets the less popular it will become.

Power Rangers: Infinity #1 failing to even debut in the Top 200 is a total disaster. This is no surprise as this comic looked as cringe as possible.

BOOM! Studios took fourth place with seven new comics in the Top 200 in August 2024.

Titan Comics had twelve dead titles walking out of Titan Comics’ twelve new titles in August 2024. This means that 100% of the new Titan Comics titles in August 2023 were dead titles walking.

The Conan license continues to be a sales blessing to Titan Comics. The Gun Honey franchise also continues to be a solid seller for Titan Comics.

Titan Comics tied for sixth place with three new comics in the Top 200.

IDW Publishing had twelve dead titles walking out of IDW Publishing’s thirteen new titles in August 2024. This means that 92% of the new IDW Publishing’s titles in August 2023 were dead titles walking.

My Little Pony franchise appears to be dead in the water with all three titles from that franchise going unranked.

Even more concerning is that the Star Trek license appears to be useless in the hands of IDW Publishing. Both Star Trek titles went unranked. IDW Publishing continues its trend of fumbling its licenses. The best move Hasbro made was pulling their license from IDW Publishing.

IDW Publishing tied for sixth place with three new comics in the Top 200 in August 2024.

Oni Press took eighth place with two new comics in the Top 200. Both were EC titles.

Bon je relativiserai tout en disant que le TOP 100 est surtout historiquement un plancher pour Marvel.
DC laissait certains titres dont vertigo presque au porte du top 200 et pour les indés.. j ai jamais connu le plancher.

Coté Marvel Namor doit etre une deception.. Chez DC Green Arrow ne decolle pas malgré Absolute Power.. Flash..

Chouette analyse.

J'espère que Ghost Machine se maintiendra, j'adore le principe et on a besoin de ce genre de démarche artistique.

Je te rejoins sur Star Wars, j'en suis encore étonné que cela vende en floppy en fait, d'autant que la qualité reste globalement moyennasse. Je suis même frustré de voir High Republic en dessous des grandes soeurs Vader et SW.

As usual, we will address most of these debut issues in their respective franchise sections below. However, there is one that we will touch on at this point.

DC Horror Presents Creature Commandos #1 scored an embarrassingly awful debut with the number 200 spot. This six-issue limited series is almost a lock to be unranked with just the second issue. David Dastmalchian is the writer for this mini-series. While Dastmalchian is an excellent actor, what he is not is a mainstream superhero comic book writer. Once again, the weird obsession that both DC Comics and Marvel Comics have for hiring Hollywood talent to write comics completely blows up in DC Comics’ face.

Les mutants se portent bien. Pas mal pour DC all in.. Lobo on est pas pret de voir une mini ou une serie.. avengers assemble part mal

Venom War had zero comics in the Top 10, one comic in the Top 25, and two comics in the Top 50. This was worse than in August 2024 when Venom War had one comic in the Top 10, one comic in the Top 25, and three comics in the Top 50.

Venom War #2 fell from the number 5 spot to the number 18 spot. Venom War #3 fell from the number 18 spot to the number 62 spot. It is tough when a title ships two issues in the same sales period. I expect Venom War #4 to rebound into the Top 50 next month.

Venom War: Wolverine #1 debuted poorly at the number 55 spot. This three-issue limited series is going to have to fight to stay in the Top 75.

Venom War: Deadpool #1 had an awful debut taking the number 88 spot. This three-issue mini-series had a tough road ahead to finish outside the Dead Titles Walking category.

Venom War: Spider-Man #2 plummeted from the number 45 spot to the number 89 spot. This is not a surprise given the weak debut number. Jackson Lanzig and Collin Kelly have yet another sales failure despite being paired up with the human ATM known as Peter Parker.

Venom War: Spider-Man #3 crashed and burned falling from the number 89 spot to the number 177 spot. No doubt that it is tough shipping two issues in the same sale period, but Venom War: Spider-Man is a lock to conclude in the Dead Titles Walking category with the fourth and final issue.

Venom War: Carnage #2 dropped from the number 73 spot to the number 132 spot. Given the bad debut number, I figured that this would happen. Torunn Grømbekk failed to get readers excited about this Venom War tie-in mini-series. This title is a lock to finish in the Dead Titles Walking category.

Venom War: Venomous #2 fell from the number 88 spot to the number 133 spot. Erica Schultz continues to have no sales success. Readers certainly were not enticed by the prospect of a Venomized Black Widow. This three-issue mini-series will conclude as a Dead Title Walking.

Venom War: Lethal Protectors #1 had a brutal debut at the number 150 spot. Wow. We all saw this coming. Sabir Pirzada is the writer and has never had any sales success. Once again, hiring a Hollywood screenwriter to pen a mainstream superhero comic book blows up in Marvel Comics’ face. Yet, like a mindless idiot, Marvel Comics editorial will continue to pull out this same trick in the future. The big question is if this three-issue mini-series will be ranked in the Top 200.

Venom War Zombiotes #2 plummeted from the number 126 spot to the number 180 spot. This four-issue mini-series has a good chance of concluding outside the Top 200. Cavan Scott continues his trend of having no sales success.

Venom War Daredevil #1 had a godawful debut barely even getting ranked and taking the number 181 spot. What an embarrassing debut. Nobody was interested in Christopher Condon’s one-shot issue.

The main Venom War title has been a solid seller. But, the Venom War mini-series have all been unmitigated disasters. The biggest reason for that is due to Marvel Comics hiring an awful collection of writers for the Venom War mini-series.

83 Absolute Power Super Son #1 (One-Shot)

93 Absolute Power Task Force VII #7 (Of 7)

122 Green Arrow #16 (Absolute Power)

152 Absolute Power Origins #3 (Of 3)

Absolute Power had one comic in the Top 10, three comics in the Top 25, and four comics in the Top 50. This was worse in the Top 10 but flat in the Top 25 and Top 50 compared to August 2024 when Absolute Power had two comics in the Top 10, three comics in the Top 25, and four comics in the Top 50.

Absolute Power #3 fell from the number 7 spot to the number 10 spot. Absolute Power #4 fell from the number 10 spot to the number 21 spot. It is embarrassing when the main big event title gets outsold by a tie-in issue.

Still, Absolute Power was a good selling big event for DC Comics. It would have been more impressive is all four issues managed to finish in the Top 10. But, slotting two of the four issues in the Top 10 is still a good accomplishment.

Absolute Power Task Force VII #6 bounced up from the number 107 spot to the number 72 spot. Absolute Power Task Force VII #7 fell from the number 72 spot to the number 93 spot. This tie-in title was a sales disappointment. But, at least it finished outside of the Dead Titles Walking category.

Absolute Power Origins #3 fell from the number 130 spot to the number 152 spot. With this issue, this mini-series concludes. Nobody was interested in an origin story of Amanda Waller from John Ridley. Once again, a Hollywood screenwriter finds no success writing a mainstream superhero comic.

La franchise Hasbro est une réussite. Ghost machine se porte bien. L univers Ultimate est dans le top 25

L ensemble des séries mutantes se classent dans le top 60.. un bon début.

Les titres en danger!!
Bon attention car la regle du top 100 s apllique surtout à Marvel et dans une moindre mesure à DC (qui laissait ses titres vertigos ou kids bien plus bas).
Pour les autres editeurs s etaient un peu leur classement normal donc..

Dead Titles Walking
Based on historical numbers from the Comichron as well as projections through April 2022, titles outside of the Top 100 are usually selling under the 18,000 unit sales mark. These are the Marvel Comics and DC Comics titles that are dead titles walking.

150 Venom War: Fantastic Four #1 (Venom War)

164 Venom War: Zombiotes #3 (Venom War)

184 Venom War: Spider-Man #3 (Venom War) (Resolicitation)

Venom War had zero comics in the Top 10, zero comics in the Top 25, and one comic in the Top 50. This was worse than September 2024 when Venom War had zero comics in the Top 10, one comic in the Top 25, and two comics in the Top 50.

Venom War: Wolverine #2 fell from the number 55 spot to the number 79 spot. This three-issue limited series is going to struggle to conclude in the Top 100.

Venom War: Deadpool #2 ticked down from the number 88 spot to the number 89 spot. This three-issue limited series had a brutal debut, but what was impressive is that there was no drop in sales for the second issue. This title might be able to conclude in the Top 100.

Venom War: Venomous #3 climbed from the number 132 spot to the number 94 spot. With this issue, this mini-series concludes. Erica Schultz delivered a sales failure with this mini-series.

Venom War: Lethal Protectors #2 climbed from the number 150 spot to the number 121 spot. This three-issue mini-series is a lock to conclude in the Dead Titles Walking category. Hollywood screenwriter Sabir Prizada continues to have no sales success with his comics.

Venom War: Carnage #3 ticked up from the number 132 spot to the number 122 spot. This three-issue mini-series is certainly going to finish in the Dead Titles Walking category.

Venom War: Fantastic Four #1 had a brutal debut coming in at the number 150 spot. Very few people were interested in checking out Adam Warren’s story in this title.

Venom War: Zombiotes #3 ticked up from the number 180 spot to the number 164 spot. This four-issue mini-series from Cavan Scott has been in the Dead Titles Walking category with each issue. That should remain the same for the final issue next month.

All of the Venom War tie-in mini-series have been epic sales failures. The biggest reason is the poor selection of writers that Marvel Comics rolled out for these titles.

Conquest 2099
93 Conquest 2099 #1

140 Conquest 2099 #2

Conquest 2099 had zero comics in the Top 50.

Conquest #1 had a brutal debut coming in at the number 93 spot. Conquest 2099 #2 then fell from the number 93 spot to the number 140 spot. This five-issue mini-series is dead on arrival. Steve Orlando failed to get anyone excited about this story. I had a feeling this would happen. Orlando never has any sales success and his stories can be too cringe-fueled at times.

Venom war je trouve les commentaires un peu trop mauvais. Ca n est certes pas un succés mais ce tait pas non plus calibré pour etre dans le top 10 a mon avis. C est pas un event à l echelle de l editeur.. Mais bon c est aussi clair que ca na pas fonctionné. Pas de sursaut de ventes déjà pour venom.. les ties ins se sont pas vendus.. reste l a vente extra de la mini elle même mais bon ca reste un echec.

Bon hasbro a toujours une franchise qui fonctionne. Image doit se féliciter d avoir acceuilli Kirkman qui leur aura apporté du cash sur la longueur.
Ghost Machine n est pas à son niveau mais bin a celui de reussite aussi..

Hasbro Franchise
5 Transformers #13

25 Scarlett #5 (Of 5)

33 Destro #5 (Of 5)

37 Void Rivals #13

154 Transformers #12 (Resolicitation)

The Hasbro franchise had one comic in the Top 10, two comics in the Top 25, and four comics in the Top 50. This was better than September 2024, when the Hasbro franchise had zero comics in the Top 10, one comic in the Top 25, and three comics in the Top 50.

Transformers #13 ticked up from the number 11 spot to the number 5 spot. Thus ends Transformers’ one-month stint outside of the Top 10. We all knew that Transformers was going to get back into the Top 10 after sustaining that initial onslaught of new X-Men titles flooding the market.

Scarlett #5 ticked up from the number 26 spot to the number 25 spot. With this final issue, Scarlett managed to sneak back into the Top 25 for a solid final sales ranking for this mini-series. Image Comics seems to be able to do no wrong with their GI Joe mini-series so far.

Destro #5 ticked up from the number 37 spot to the number 33 spot. This brings this five-issue mini-series to a conclusion. Once again, Image Comics enjoyed another sales success with a GI Joe title. The GI Joe franchise does not show any signs of cooling off anytime soon.

Void Rivals #13 climbed from the number 67 spot to the number 37 spot. This was a great rebound for this title. We normally see Void Rivals in the 30-40 range in the sales rankings. So, normalcy has returned.

Gunslinger Spawn #36 shot up from the number 108 spot to the number 81 spot. This title returns to where we normally find this title in the sales rankings.

Spawn Scorched #34 rocketed from the number 165 spot to the number 105 spot. So close to getting back into the Top 100! Spawn Scorched remains my favorite Spawn title.

Spawn Violator #2 fell from the number 85 spot to the number 112 spot. This drop for this six-issue mini-series was expected given the poor debut number.

Spawn #358 shot up from the number 188 spot to the number 117 spot. This title is still selling lower than a few issues ago when it was at the number 70 spot.

Spawn Rat City #7 climbed from the number 192 spot to the number 141 spot. This title remains doomed to dwell in the Dead Titles Walking category.

Spawn Sam and Twitch Case Files #7 climbed from being unranked to the number 165 spot. This title continues to see zero sales success.

Spawn Kills Every Spawn #4 climbed from being unranked to the number 185 spot. This five-issue mini-series has been a total sales dud.

Ghost Machine Titles
50 Rook Exodus #6

51 Geiger #7

113 Redcoat #7

188 Redcoat #6 (Resolicitation)

Ghost Machine had one comic in the Top 50. This was the same as in September 2024, when Ghost Machine had one comic in the Top 50.

Rook Exodus #6 dipped from the number 45 spot to the number 50 spot. This title continues to clock in around the number 40-50 spot.

Geiger #7 climbed from the number 67 spot to the number 51 spot. This is about where we expect to see this title.

Redcoat #7 shot up from the number 142 spot to the number 113 spot. It will be interesting to see if this title can get back to the Top 100 where it had been prior to last month.

All in all, Geoff Johns should be quite happy with the sales success of his new imprint. Outside of the Hasbro license, the Ghost Machine titles are the best-selling comics from Image Comics.

J ai pas les chiffres en tete mais j ai l impression qu Image est devenu plus un pole axé sur Kirkhman, Johns mais aussi Vaughan ou Brubaker que sur les fondateurs originels...

186 Dazzler #1 (Resolicitation)

190 Ultimate X-Men #7 (Resolicitation)

191 Exceptional X-Men #1 (Resolicitation)

The X-Men franchise had two comics in the Top 10, four comics in the Top 25, and twelve comics in the Top 50. This was worse than in September 2024, when the X-Men franchise had five comics in the Top 10, ten comics in the Top 25, and thirteen comics in the Top 50.

Year-over-year numbers were up as the X-Men franchise had two comics in the Top 10, five comics in the Top 25, and eleven comics in the Top 50 in October 2023.

Numbers were up from two years ago as the X-Men franchise had zero comics in the Top 10, four comics in the Top 25, and six comics in the Top 50 in October 2022.

Let’s start with the team titles.

Uncanny X-Men #4 ticked up from the number 8 spot to the number 4 spot. This is so impressive. Uncanny X-Men continues to be the most valuable brand name in comics. I am convinced that Marvel Comics could hire one of my pugs to write Uncanny X-Men and the power of this brand would continue to generate Top 10 success.

X-Men #6 ticked up from the number 17 spot to the number 11 spot. Marvel Comics just missed out on placing two X-Men team titles in the Top 10. Insane.

Exceptional X-Men #2 fell from the number 4 spot to the number 13 spot. I fully expect to see this title continue to slide down the sales rankings.

X-Force #4 climbed from the number 51 spot to the number 32 spot. This is phenomenal. X-Force #1 debuted at the number 10 spot and then suffered a massive drop as X-Force #2 fell to the number 50 spot. However, X-Force #3 arrested that fall by taking the number 51 spot. And now we have X-Force #4 climbing back up in the rankings. This is very rare to see in a new comic.

Normally, once there is a big sales drop the title either slowly descends and finds its happy place in the rankings or the title continues to crash and burn in the sales rankings. But, to see a title suddenly stop its descent after just one issue and then begin climbing back up in the rankings with just the fourth issue. Wow. Very impressive indeed. Congrats to Geoffrey Thorne. Thorne might be on his way to his first sales success in comics.

Sentinels #1 had a pedestrian debut taking the number 39 spot. I am not confident that this five-issue limited series will have any sales success. Alex Paknadel is the writer and he has never had any sales success.

X-Factor #3 dipped from the number 41 spot to the number 43 spot. This is a positive sign that this title’s fall in the rankings slowed significantly this month. The next few months will be critical in determining the long-term success of this title.

NYX #4 dropped from the number 52 spot to the number 75 spot. No surprise here. I expect this Jackson Lanzig and Collin Kelly title to fall out of the Top 100 in the next few months.

Let’s hop over to the bad boys of the X-Men franchise.

Wolverine #2 ticked down from the number 1 spot to the number 6 spot. Things are looking wonderful for this new title.

Wolverine Revenge – Red Band #3 fell from the number 22 spot to the number 34 spot. This five-issue mini-series is doing well and has an excellent chance of concluding in the Top 50.

Wolverine: Revenge #3 fell from the number 57 spot to the number 66 spot. The Red Band version of this title is performing at a much higher rate.

Deadpool Team-Up #3 dropped from the number 127 spot to the number 130 spot. This five-issue mini-series continues to underperform.

Mystique #1 had a solid but not impressive debut taking the number 26 spot. Failing to make the Top 25 with the debut issue indicates that this five-issue mini-series will drop out of the Top 50 in the next month or two.

Phoenix #4 climbed from the number 59 spot to the number 44 spot. I am not expecting this title to remain in the Top 50 next month.

Dazzler #2 plummeted from the number 15 spot to the number 65 spot. Ouch. It looks like Jason Loo was unable to convince many readers to stick around for the second issue. Having said that, this four-issue mini-series has a chance of concluding in the Top 100.

Pour les titres mutants ca reste pas mal même si on sent certains titres comme NYX glisser vers la fin. Mais vu le nombre ca reste bien.

Pour avengers Cap remonte depuis 2 mois mais reste hors du top 100. Scarlet witch reveint au dessus et comme prévu Immortal Thor revoit le 16 classé certes en dehors du top 100 mais 2 mois de suite donc au dessus comme prévu. A voir son vrai classement avec le top de novembre.

Je vois que FF est dans le top 50 (36) ca reste bien pour ce titre qui n a pas toujours su se maintenir aussi haut.

Action Comics et Superman sont aussi dans le top 50 ce qui est aussi bien pour un personnage qui n a pas toujours pu y etre.

Pour les titres en danger je ne mets que marvel et DC car les autres editeurs n ont pas la regle du top 100

Namor est un echec cuisant. Il est moins etonnant d y voir Blood Hunters qui part sans persos vendeurs et sans equipe creative un tant soit peu vendeuse

Chez DC la mode Harley Quinn est bien passée.. Constantine ne vend pas plus intégré à l univers DC qu avant.. mais je pense que les TP ne sont pas au même niveau. Peut etre que Vertigo étant de retour.
Jenny SParks ne fonctionne pas mais il me semble qu human target ou dangers street n etaient pas haut. Je suppose que King vend sur le marché du TP lui aussi en librairie classique (où on a pas de chiffres)
