Top 100 Comics And Graphic Novels With Full Marketshare Stats For February 2012
As Bleeding Cool reported earlier, DC have, again, a lock on the top ten of comics distributed to comic stores in North America by Diamond in February 2012. But Marvel have regained both retail and unit market share. And as to that Top Ten, I expect Avengers Vs X-Men #0 may throw a fly in that particular ointment in March.
Also congrats to Dynamite. Named the Under 4% Publisher Of 2011 in the Diamond Gem Awards (seriously, why has nobody else reported the results?), they seem to be rocking February with a 4.2% share. Will they be ineligible for that award next year?
Here's a look at the top 100 comics, top 100 graphic novels, publisher marketshare and industry performance.
