>I've said before that the month of July presented the best opportunity this summer for the Direct Market to make up ground lost in the winter — and that is what happened, according to Comichron's analysis of preliminary data released today by Diamond Comic Distributors. Retailers ordered $44.64 million worth of comic books, graphic novels, and magazines in the month, nearly 10% more than July 2017, which was the second weakest month of that year. The year-to-date deficit, piled up in winter, was cut in half; shipments stand at $296.09 million after seven months, off around $6 million, or less than 2%. Click to visit our page for July 2018 comics sales estimates; the figures will be posted on Monday.

>Both of the Big Two publishers contributed market leadership, splitting the Top 10 evenly and combining for a dual market share of 70.69%, the highest seen since October 2011, right after the debut of the New 52. Market share leader Marvel beat its July 2017 dollar sales by 16%, aided by Amazing Spider-Man #1 and Captain America #1, among other launches.

>DC did even better relative to its results a year earlier, with Batman #50 leading the comics list and Batman Vol. 6: Bride or Burglar leading the graphic novels. Doomsday Clock #6 and Superman #1 placed fourth and fifth.

>DC's dollar sales were up 29% year over year, a figure exactly matched by IDW, which followed up a June in which it had a recent-record-low number of new comic books on the shelves (19) with nearly three times as many, 56.

>Image's top title, Die Die Die #1, which shipped without being solicited and went on sale July 11, did not make the Top 10, but it couldn't have missed by much . The number of copies shipped was reportedly equal to orders on Robert Kirkman' s previous launch, Oblivion Song #1, from March; that would put it above 80,000 copies, and the issue did lead reorders in intervening weeks. So the Top 10 will have sales somewhere above that.

>Discordant notes came again from graphic novels, down 9% in dollars — but only 5% in units, suggesting we're seeing the effects of a number of books being deep-discounted. Graphic novel drops in the single digits are an improvement over 2017's average rate of decline; strong graphic novel months tend to echo ones for comic books some months later because of the collection dynamic, so we'll see whether things pick up as the holidays approach.

>It's certainly the case that a month seeing relaunches of so many titles from the two largest publishers ought to be a good one; the fact that it was may show a return to some level of normalcy, after a year in which very little was working as it was supposed to.

August is a five shipping week month, up against a $45.72 million month from 2017, which had an equal number of weeks. This July just nearly beat that figure, so decent prospects for making up ground continue; launches for Infinity Wars and Fantastic Four are also in the mix.

King had planned for the wedding to not happen, it was the marketing team, Lee and Didio who would have wanted things like tie-ins and such, so it's bendis, atleast kings book sold well regardless, Bendis had some of DC's most concentrated advertising in a long, long time and still only managed #5

Sure those books being lower than normal but it's not going to account for such a large gap, marvel had 3 new #1's and theres no reason to believe that they're not doing their typical overshipping, marvel did better this month, but it's rarely ever because they're actually selling more books or putting out better quality books

Not him and while it appears he thinks the wedding was issue 51 you seem to be ignoring 51 exists.

I'm not here to discuss the topic when you shift the goal post to "how is any spot in the top ten low" in just pointing out you've ignored 51 is not, in fact, at the top of the list.

Oh I know, and it's sad. They'll let Bendis flounder for another 10 issues then they'll reboot it at number one again for him so it gives him a few more issues then he'll decide to take over "season two" of GLC from Morrison. And Didio will oblige because he seems to be committing career sudoko.

#51 would have only sold normal numbers at most, 85-95k, the top 10 has a wedding issue, 6 new #1's and an event book, being #8 isn't that bad, though it's going to be #52 onwards that show the effects of the #50 backlash

Oh I’m not defending Bendis’ Superman. Are you kidding me? However, the fact is that Superman hasn’t been a top #1 seller in years, outside of Action Comics 1000. That’s Batman’s thing. And as you can see, Batman is at the top. Catwoman is also NOT a top seller either.

At the end of the day, DC allows returns on their books, and doesn’t over ship. Marvel cooks their books to look better. All these #1s are meaningless.

They stopped the twice per month schedule for those books and gave them a huge marketing campaign, in addition to replacing the previous teams and giving Bendis control of the entire Superman line. They expected more than "shipping as usual". This is still higher than usual due to basically being new number 1s. We'll see those numbers falling off a cliff next month.

The follow up to the biggest comic of the year isn't in the top ten.

Are you retarded?

Publisher---Comics shipped---Graphic Novels shipped---Magazines shipped---Total shipped
Marvel---89---37---0---126
DC---63---34---0---97
IDW---56---19---1---76
Image---59---14---0---73

Those percentages make sense with Marvel putting out 23% more books than DC in July

The biggest issue is that DC spent a lot of money and effort to bring Bendis and everything with him, wasting their own advertising space for him, giving him a spot in the most important anniversary comic of the last decade when he has never contributed to the character, for his Superman to not only do worse than Captain America, but for his Action Comics, the next issue after the highest selling comic of the year, to not even crack the top 10 is incredibly embarrassing.

Yeah it looks pretty bad no matter how you chop it.

I actually love Bendis and want this thing to keep going, but I won't buy floppies. I wish there was a way to tell DC "I'm waiting for the omnibus/trade". There are a lot of people like us but until the Amazon listing shows up there's no real way to vote.

I was curious if there would be a big drop off after Batman 50's non-event, it doesn't seem to have dropped at all. I guess we can be annoyed and still buy the next issue.

Catwoman #1 had the tie-in to Batman #50 on the same day, so a lot of people who picked up 50 would have picked it up.

It also has Joelle Jones art which is great
It also has an Artgerm variant

it would have sold a lot

Holy shit. DC's still managing to hold roughly their usual market and unit share with that few numbers of books? That's fucking amazing.

Why the heck Marvel has 89 books published? Is it to give illusion that they are doing well.

They do, but there's a catch, DC has Batman in a dozen books and Supes in couple too, Marvel does the opposite, they put out dozens of books with moongirl, Wasp and Squirrel Girls level of quality, which is none, and they're still at the top.

Wolverine and infinity wars 1shots definitely contribute to Marvel's higher shipping.

Amazing Spider-Man having a lower drop than Batman. Hope it remains like this. Spider-man competing with Batman again would be great considering the destruction of the character in the last 10 years.
