Ultimate Endgame #1 blind bag (and DC’s absence) sees Marvel Comics dominate the Bleeding Cool Weekly Bestseller List
Article Summary
Marvel dominates the Bleeding Cool Weekly Bestseller List as DC skips new comic releases this week
Ultimate Endgame #1 takes the top spot, boosted by blind bags and overwhelming sales numbers
Image Comics titles like The Moon Is Following Us and Spawn: The Dark Ages break into the top ten
Sales data is based on actual sales from over 100 ComicHub-enabled comic book stores worldwide
As you may have noticed, DC Comics chose not to publish any comic books this week. Not officially, at least. But that doesn’t mean that Marvel Comics had the top nine to itself. Most of the Marvel dollars were taken by Ultimate Endgame #1 courtesy of the blind bags, which sold five times as many as Ultimates #19 and the Sorcerer Supreme #1 launch with Wanda Maximoff in the lead. But the failure of the Age Of Revelation event from Marvel’s X-Men titles saw Punisher Red Band outsell the Finale. But the absence of DC did allow Spawn: The Dark Ages from Image Comics to make it into the top nine. DC left a lot of money on the table this week.

This is the Top Nine Bleeding Cool Bestseller List, as compiled by over a hundred named direct market comic stores from their sales from Wednesday to Saturday, the “Wednesday Warriors”. The chart is compiled from actual sales data from 120 to 150 comic book stores provided by ComicHub, which provides POS services for comic book retailers worldwide, mostly in North America and the UK. These are typically from what might be called mid-range stores, and we run a bunch of them below. Bleeding Cool Bestseller List gives the best-selling reported comic of the week, the 100.0 number, and you can see how each title performed as a percentage of that sale. These numbers are based on sales in-store, rather than orders from publishers. Participating Bestseller List comic book stores include:
