Joseph Glass writes for Bleeding Cool; So, this Sunday just gone, a question was asked at Kapow Comic Con in London; a convention that aims to be as big as the US conventions, but over in sunny old Blighty (though I did notice the sun pretty much eluded us this year). It’s a good show,…

Bleeding Cool reported that Marvel had been receiving massive reorders for Avengers Vs X-Men #1, pushing it well over the 200K mark. Well, here’s the evidence, for reorders from the 20th to the 26th of February. Avengers Vs X-Men, and their variants, taking seven of the top twelve, and three of the top four. Mark Millar’s promotion that will see him fly internationally for a signing to the shop that orders the most copies of Supercrooks lifted that book, but was beaten by the likes of Justice League and Batman #7, Justice League #1 getting a seventh print, and the Ends Of The Earth Amazing Spider-Man #882.
The reorder chart, that shows orders of comics that have already been published is dominated by The Walking Dead, helped by the TV show airing again. But Batman: Black Mirror and the Avengers Kirby Omnibus grab the top two spots, with the only regular monthly issue in he charts, Batman #6, coming in at number 5.

Yesterday, Fox News decided to suggest that because DC have plans to reintroduce one of their iconic characters to the New 52 as a gay man, that meant that Superman might be gay. Today, the closest (and I originally mispelt that as “closet”) thing the UK has to Fox News, the Daily Mail does the…
