Superman/Spider-Man outsells Absolute titles by four or five times in today’s Bleeding Cool Weekly Bestseller List

Superman/Spider-Man #1 sold almost four times what Absolute Wonder Woman sold, almost five times what Absolute Martian Manhunter sold, as well as Amazing Spider-Man and six times Ultimate Endgame… and at eight bucks a pop, what a monster of a comic book….DC got five, Marvel got five… but I will note, not one X-book in the top ten, unless you count Jim Lee drawing Gambit in Superman/Spider-Man…

This is the Top Ten Bleeding Cool Bestseller List, as compiled by over a hundred named direct market comic stores from their sales from Wednesday to Friday, the “Wednesday Warriors”. The chart is compiled from actual sales data from 120 to 150 comic book stores provided by ComicHub, out of around 1800-2000 direct market comic book shops, 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 list a bunch 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 in-store sales, rather than publisher orders. Participating Bestseller List comic book stores include:
