March Sales
Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2008 2:26 pm
The sales estimates for March are up at CBR.
Marvel clocks in at Number 1, capturing 47% of both units and dollars. Marvel also claimed the top 5 spots in unit sales, and 8 of the top 10, interrupted only by Dark Horse's Buffy and DC's JLA.
Largest percentage increase for the month (in a tight race) goes to X-Force #2, with a 622% jump. Ms. Marvel #25 showed a saner pop, going up 70%.
Lords of Avalon Sod #2 (what is that?) took the biggest pounding out of Marvel's line, losing 51% of the sales of the premiere issue. Also taking significant drops were the latest Handbook, Marvel Atlas (which I would assume could be attributed to the lack of a fanbase for fictional countries; presumably, the sales figures here will return to previous levels, when they return to more character-centric themes), and Fantastic Four #555 (but that's more a reflection of 554's sales, than anything).
