Batman actually did outsell it most likely. Batman #21 has two different versions and both are in the Top 10.

They do the Doctor Who comics and localize some euro comix.

John White
At the time DC used that logo the gif was accurate. One of the best books of Rebirth. The New 52 run was the one that had problems.
Isaiah Gonzalez
it's still accurate
in fact it will never NOT be accurate
Cooper Bennett
Rhato is only surpassed by Superman and Deathstroke for me. Def in top 5. Its fucking amazing.
Jordan Hall
Events sell whatever. You can have low selling inhumans then bam a top selling event for inhumans.
Heck moon girl could have a event that sells while her own comic is axed during the event run.
Isaac Kelly
'Kay. Keep crying.
Julian Foster
>Batman 21 in the Top 10 twice. >Flash 21 in the Top 11 twice. Holy shit, that's fucking crazy. We need to see the actual numbers, but that's a guaranteed #1 and #2 position by a mile. No wonder the two X-Men are at #3 and #4.

And Spencer will be bragging about it in Twitter, thinking he's the salvation of capes.
Brayden King
This. It's just more cases of D*sney cheating the system to make their numbers higher. I bet Secret Memepire's numbers are artificially inflated too because there's no way it actually sold #1 let alone even in the Top 10.
Hudson Howard
>E-events and first issues sold! W-we made it guys!
"Secret Empire #0" was one f those "comics that go with loot boxes". We know for a fact that it sold worse than a normal issue of Superman.
Sebastian Davis

Jason Campbell
Entertaining shitshows they are, especially when they bait for controversy.
Bentley Reyes
And the Flash comic is only there because it's a crossover with Batman.
Jonathan Lopez
good for Marvel but lets see if they can make it past issue 1
Carson Torres
Dividing different covers of the same issue into separate rankings while keeping Marvels gimmicks to push Secret Empire as one unit says a lot.
or Flash gained a lot of fans from the shit tv show

Lincoln Clark
will someone tell him about the 2 Batman books or does he block everyone that disagrees with him
Henry Murphy
Exactly. If anyone ever claims that D*sney doesn't pay Diamond under the table to goose the numbers in their favor, just point to this. There's literally no way you can justify this. It's blatant favoritism to make it look like Marvel did better than they actually did. I know for a FACT that Superman outsold Secret Empire by a significant amount yet it's not even in the Top 10.
Brayden Ross

Jose Gomez
Flash outsells 95% of Marvel catalog since Rebirth.
Bentley Morales
Im not trying to inject politics here but it really seems like "progressives", wheteher its politicians, or news programs or corporations are obsessed with image management rather than actual results. marvel doesnt gain one penny from manipulating these numbers. They just save face and that really seems to be what motivates progressive entities/people. Its weird.
Tyler Gray
DC is destroying marlel in everything but movies though
Jack Hughes
...
Tyler James
DCEU movies actually make good money, specially on DVD and merchandizing sales.
I'm not even a fan, but fair is fair. Normies and edgy kids eat it up.
Jordan Price
As for Nick Spencers Twitter it really needs to be pointed out that Marvel bundled SE and got full credit for it while DCs variants were counted as separate entities but sold the same story. DC btfo of marvel here and it seems really clear to anyone that follows these things. Outright lying/spin to save face. Sad!
Nathaniel James
This. It's pretty clear that this is just even more SJW propoganda, not even worth acknowledging. Literally yawning at this.
Nathan Gray
progressives has always been about looks more than anything else
Dominic Adams
Don't forget lootcrate.
Brayden Peterson
The truth is hard isn't it?
Gavin Cook
>Taking the obvious bait.
David Lopez
Marvel also makes a lot more movies so even if the DCEU was good it still couldn't keep up
Charles White
An honest list would have the Button at #1, Flash at #2, then Secret Empire #3, and the two XMen books finish the top 5. Very good month for DC and lots of very nervous folks at Marvel today!
Connor Russell
issue #0 sold well but will #1 sell well does it still count as a number 1 even if it isn't the first
Jason Walker
Thats what i was referring to but couldnt think of the name of the promotion. what is lootcrate anyways?
Dominic Gonzalez
>what is lootcrate anyways? A scam created by disney to make their sales look better than they are.
Logan Cook
Company where you pay them I think like $15 a month and they send you random pop culture shit.
> I can't tell if he's joking or actually retarded.
Hunter Garcia
>Dark Horse Comics' Neil Gaiman's American Gods: Shadows #2 ranked #66 for the publisher's top book how so low?
wait, I know. Cause no one knew about it
Gavin Nelson
Secret Empire isn't controversial if your head isn't up your own ass.
Talking about killing all infidels is controversial no matter where your head is.
Julian Martinez
>Thnik of the Spencer tweet threads after someone ''''reminds''' him about Batman and Flash. Cant w8.
Easton Evans
>X-Men Gold >entertaining This is either severe Stockholm syndrome or beyond shit taste, I can't figure out which one.
Dominic Peterson
woah red hood ok lets gooo
Carter Wilson
I was disappointed by the lack of dance parties
Levi Long
that's not actually pretty bad though, DC has 2 issues of a crossover story arc Marvel literally has the relaunching of the X-Men and the start of an Event.
Jordan Long
X-men Gold had actual controversy. The "controversy" for Secret Empire is just a bunch of butthurt MCUfag tumblrites that don't actually read comics screaming into the void about how "they made Cap into a Nazi!"
Hunter Walker
Thw problem is that marvel didnt plan for x-men gold to be controversial
William Gray
Two different price points. One is 3.99$ and the other $2.99
Elijah Cooper
BUT it's worth noting that these are pre-order numbers. Secret Empire's "controversy" was something that existed before the comic came out meaning it would have effected sales if controversy does sell comics. On the other hand, X-men Gold's controversy didn't happen until after its release, so it wouldn't have effected these numbers at all.
Cooper Gray
Well, Ive done my part by visiting Nicks twitter and letting him know DC kicked his ass.
Owen Collins
>DC has 2 issues of a crossover story arc Propped up by Watchmen.
