Detective Comics Comics

>Detective Comics Comics

Feels bad, man.

Could be worse desu

Superman could be a Nazi

That'd make him interesting desu.

>Batgirl selling almost as much as Superman

how quickly can they get Shazam vs Captain Nazi out

But Mastermen was great.

>four harley quinn titles sell more than Superman, Flash, and Wonder Woman.
>one harley quinn title nearly sells more than Superman and Flash combined

I wonder what the other best-sellling comics in the top 10 are

>adequate sales
>mouseketeers trying to make this look bad

Delete this

>Literally everything with Batman name tapped in it sales like water
>But Batman can't save Supes even if his name is tapped on it.

Well, no wonder WB decided to fucking sideline the shit out of the guy.

>1. Black Panther
>2. Poe Dameron
>4. C-3PO Special
>6. Gwenpool
>7. Star Wars
>8. Darth Vader
>10. Amazing Spider-Man

I can't be the only one keking at Dark Knight III Master Race...right?
It's something Banefags would say in a company war on this board.

>Batman literally keeping DC comics alive

And Sup Forums still hates the poor guy

Now watch those Harley numbers go through the roof this September.

What's sad is that Starwars actually did the same to Marvel...this is so fucked up for both company if you ask me

Marvel has been winning in sales for quite awhile even without Star Wars

Winning a shit sales mean shit, user. Star Wars literally save their comic book section just like Batman do to DC and Spidey used to do for Marvel.

...???

Sales is the only thing we're talking about. Unless you're saying that Batman is keeping DC comics alive for the past 60 years due to... the quality of the writing?

Seriously when did this place become so obsessed with money and sales figures and how much movies gross? Who fucking cares as long as we get quality.

>Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys
>quality

I guess people are look for a sense of belonging and superiority, so they go full-force into company wars? Maybe I'm reading into it too much, maybe not. Or maybe it was always like this and we just don't remember it.

We haven't gotten quality in years user

We just got Rebirth the other day.

if something sells it means is for casuals and bad

4 Harley Quinn books.

Like I said, we haven't gotten quality in years user

???
Yes, and I'm talking about sales? I just said Star Wars franchise really save the day for Marvel comic and without them their situation will be slightly better than DC. Nothing mention about Quality of writing.

Top meme, go actually read it faggot

>hating batgod
dont forget batman is in charge of DCEU too

Why are you proving his point.

>people legitimately use a fucking event as an example of quality

>>Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys
>>quality

Man, these sales are sad. I hope Rebirth pans out for them.

>look at all these panderings, watchmen, and whoa dr.manhattan is big bad! based cereal king xd

What does that matter at all. Final Crisis is god tier and its an event. Stop being such a faggot hipster.

>final crisis is god tier

>sales dictate how much we will be getting of something
>low sales for something of quality means no more quality
>high sales of shit means more shit
>durrrr why do people care about sales

>muh nostalgia pandering
>muh Watchmen shoehorning
>3 jokers!!!!!

Bravo Johns.

>Final Crisis is god tier
What do you consider God-tier?

It's definitive event comic.

>hipster
We're not even talking about independent or creator-owned comics. We're still firmly in the mainstream. Calm down.

Doesn't mean it's quality or "god tier"

Countdown was good

>What the fuck is COIE

That's Crisis on Infinite Earths though.

But there was a pretty good story with a Nazi Superman.
OT but is a sequel for that planned?

There was the one time they made Superman a communist.

>it's shit because it sells!
>it's good because it doesn't sell!

That's not what I said at all you fucking moron

it's what you implied

no it's not what he implied at all either

I think the problem is less caring about the sales for your favorite comic, but obsessing over sales for sales sake. Wanting Sheriff of Babylon to sell like hotcakes is fine, but not so much caring about sales so you can post "HAHA MARLEL BTFO" or "DCucks on suicide watch".

This is just my opinion on the issue, so ymmv.

You misunderstood. They're saying that
>low-selling comics will be canceled
Which I suppose means that
>low-selling bad comics will be canceled
But more importantly
>low-selling good comics will be canceled
And we don't like that last bit.

Threads like this are good for commiserating over good comics which have been, are being or will be canceled.

Few people in here are talking about Marvel except when Star Wars was brought up

sounds like people have a serious victim complex

Nope not all. Nice try though

Right I agree there's two groups of people who look at sales. One use them as ammunition for their company wars and the other who are afraid their favorite comic is going to get cancelled.

I wasn't necessarily talking about this thread, just the sales obsession in general.

I bet you won't even have the courage or common decency to apologize.

like Trump says: "Never apologize"

Does DC have any plans on doing a digital subscription plan like Marvel's?

he's been both a Nazi and a commie

>>>Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys
>>>quality

On the other side the best selling books are all Star Wars though.

>>>>Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys
>>>>quality

>it's okay that our ship is sinking as long as theirs is too!

Black Panther is no. 1 though

Marvel fans don't want their characters to be Nazis
DC fans want their characters to be Nazis.

What a world.

WE

WRONG, there is a third one like who see the sales to see how much a comic that we hate is doing so we can speculate when is going to be cancelled.

Examples, Lobo, hellcat, red hood and arsenal, squirrel girl

>implying there are only two sides
Wew, casual.

The topic is DC and you are going off-topic.

Please discuss DC in this thread, and only DC in this thread, and nothing that isn't DC in this thread, because you are obviously a casual who doesn't understand comics.

WAZ

a good seller

You see what happens when we get a chance to buy comic, Marvel?

>Harley Quinn now has more books than Batman
>Harley Quinn now sells more than Superman,WW, and Flash
heh

She should join Justice League.

. Star Wars #18 98,880
Issue 1 sold a fucking million, this fucking tells you that marvel is shit.

Maybe this is a result of the darkness infecting the DCU
Rebirth will change it all right
No more Harley everywhere right?

>No more Harley everywhere right?
She sells, so no.

we are probably getting more Harley everywhere after Suicide Squad.

>>>>>>Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys
>>>>>>quality

>DC
>Batman and friends

>Marvel
>#1's, events, and Star Wars

Which is worse?

We have Injustice

well I like Batman so I say Marvel is worse

Name a DC character that's as good as Batman, you can't.

Owlman

...

Even if you took away all the SW books, Marvel's superhero books would still be outselling DC's superhero books by a large margin. They weren't in any danger before. Though DC's books will probably overtake them for a few months after Rebirth until Marvel Now hits.

>6. Gwenpool

I don't WANT my characters to be a nazi, but if a writer comes in and has a story to tell where a characters gets temporarily turned into a nazi then I'm at least willing to give them a few issues to justify it before getting triggered.

Mastermen for example proved that a Nazi Superman story could be really interesting. I'd totally buy a Mastermen ongoing about Nazi Superman. Likewise, I'm willing to give Spencer an arc of HYDRA Cap before calling it shit. Superior Iron Man was fantastic and Superior Spider-man was at least a wild ride. Superior Captain America could be great too.

>Batman putting the company on his back doe

what a legend

I don't think you understand how diamond sales figures work. Those numbers were artificially inflated by #1 speculation/collectors sales, loot crate bulk orders and ~50 incentive variant covers. The actual sales numbers are probably significantly lower.

Sales on a #1 issue, and even a #2 and #3 to a lesser extent, are all but meaningless because they don't reflect how many issues actually sold but rather how many issues LCSs ordered

>what is a number 1

I like gwenpool for Hasting writting but you guys are to obsess with her

I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Personally, I think a slam dunk combo like Hastings and Gurihiru can only bring success. At least, I hope so.

Instead he is mashed potato

It was a terrible book.

Things you like back =/= Good Books, it was almost as bad done as the end of Darkseid War.

Almost, Johns hasnt been a good writter in 3 years

I don't get what's so bad about this. Who cares if they're not #1? They've still got their considerable stake in the market.

>Sup Forums thinks you have to choose sides
You guys are retarded.

>Two of the most popular titles involve characters with no superpowers
This is a complete joke. Without superpowers, a character isn't a REAL superhero or villain, they're just costumed freaks. One is a furry, the other is a circus clown.

>needing powers

bitchmade

This isn't new at all.
