Analysis

C4S Analyses The August 2013 TOP 300 Comics

AllNew_FATHOM-02b-Konat-reservedEvery month Diamond shows their (mostly USA-only) Top 300 and this month delivers Diamond’s May 2013 Top 300 Comic Books and Top 300 Graphic Novels sales charts, with sales indexes, added below.

Every month Comichron.com puts up a sales analysis and C4S received an email alert sent out by John Jackson Miller… Very interesting for sure!

But C4S does not want to address sales figures of the new Superman Unchained. And Comichron said“the market ordered a huge number of graphic novels in July” which is truly good news! And let us not forget how Marvel is making a Thanos come back with Infinity #1!!!

Anyway… C4S focuses on what is most important and we only need to mention the numbers of the Mainstream floppies: 26, 56, 63, 67, 77, 90, 99, 101, 127 (Romano Molenaar on Birds Of Prey), 171 (Fairest), 181, 196,

AODHS01-Cov-CaselliHere comes the BEST part though, and C4S means the Indy titles: 28 All New Fathom #1, 79 Red Sonja, 122 Buffy, 136 Grimm Fairy Tales Oz #1, 202 Aod Vs Hack Slash 1 , 205 Ame Comi Girls, 225 Aphrodite IX # 3, 240 Miss Fury # 4, 241 Rachel Rising # 18, 242 Dawn Swordmasters Daughter, 249 Danger Girl Trinity # 4, 265 Witchblade # 168, 277 Grimm Fairy Tales Robyn Hood Wanted # 3, 280 Tarot Witch of The Black Rose # 81, 281 Warlord of Mars Dejah Thoris # 27, 292 Jirni # 4, 294 Bubblegun # 2, 318 Fathom Elite Saga # 3, 326 Fathom Elite Saga # 4, 327 Fathom Elite Saga # 5, 333 Grimm Fairy Tales Jungle Book Last of the Species # 5, 334 Mercy Sparx # 1
336 Screwed # 2, 345 Lenore Volume II # 8, 350 Charismagic Vol. 2 # 3, 366 Solid State Tank Girl # 2, 369 Executive Assistant Assassins # 13, 375 Legend of the Shadowclan # 5

It is great to see Aspen making such strong waves with Fathom but also with their titles like Jirni and Bubblegun.
It is also amazing to see that two of the biggest Indy names (Jim Balent and Terry Moore) are always staying strong and proud, with Tarot and Rachel Rising!

About the Author

Richard is the driving force behind Comics for Sinners. His love and admiration for female comic book characters is virtually unparalleled, which immediately explains his biggest 'sin': his Hot Mummy fetish. This sketchbook theme is philogynistic in nature and even the source of his WIP comic book series "The Sisterhood".
