Who had this to say…
- Graham Crackers Comics: If Magneto wasn’t right, he was definitely number one. Fantastic Four doesn’t make our top 5 very often, so congrats to them this week.
- Ssalesfish: Batman ’89 took a slight dip from last month’s issue 1 with the thing I noticed being that people weren’t buying both covers nearly as much. Still a huge hit by all means but a little off from the huge numbers of that first issue. X-men Trial of Magneto, Harley Quinn Animated’s comic, and Eternals were all noteworthy. That Eternals book may have sold better than the regular ongoing #1 did but I don’t have that data in front of me to be sure but Thanos may have done the trick.
- Rodman Comics: This week Marvel only had two books make it into the top ten for us. Batman 89 issue 2 took the top spot for us. Primordial 1 did very well for Image, beating out all the Marvel titles here. Bettie Page Curse of the Banshee 4 had a strong showing with all of the variant covers this week managed to break into our top ten.
