kek

>11 mangoes
>1 volume of French shit

Is nothing safe from the global elite?

Definitely surprised by Astonishing and Deadpool Kills Again breaking the top 10.

>Secret Empire still can't beat the Bat

How is Marvel okay with handing the reigns of Spider-Man to Spencer again?

When you consider the cover of Astonishing, I'm not surprised

What was the cover?

Well *insertname here kills the Marvel universe is basically clickbait of comics is it not? If #2 or #3 breaks top ten then I'll be surprised

I TURNED MYSELF INTO A TRADE PAPERBACK MORTYYYY

...

>When you consider the cover of Astonishing, I'm not surprised
What's so special about it?

With the exception of Fantomex it's got more "remember the X-Men" than any other cover in the relaunch

>Image having most of top10 trades
>Two of the DC trades are TMNT crossovers
>OniPress making it on there AT ALL
Legit surprised.

I don't get what so special about it either, Art isn't that great either. but then I'm not an X-fag so it might be a homage? like what is trying to say.

It's not clickbait because Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe already came out in 2012. As far as I know, that was the highest profile release of Bunn's Deadpool minis.

A lack of shit characters

Yeah I know they already made a Deadpool kills the Marvel Universe back in 2012, that's why the current one has Again at the end. I'm saying that the whole "One guy kills the entire universe" concept is "clickbait-y" in a way since people are curious on how Punisher would deal with heavy hitters or what kind of ass pull they're gonna do.

Old Man Logan is pretty shit though.

And you guys are mad about too much upcoming Batman. DC is just getting desperate.

> 5. SECRET EMPIRE #6 (MAR)
> 6. SECRET EMPIRE #7 (MAR)

>Thank you guys sincerely for making "Dark Days: The Casting" Prelude to DC Metal (out Wed) the #1 book for July. You're all in the band.
From Scott Snyder's Twitter.

I dont buy OML, but I like him much more than Avenger Uncle Tom "you killed the only man that mattered" Wolverine.

the special thing about Astonishing X Men is that it is the first time since like 2011 that Marvel gives X Men fans what they want since Avengers vs X Men. Spurriers X Men Legacy is the only great XMen book released since Bendis put his hands on them.

>no Shade The Changing Girl
Ahahahahahaha dead imprint. Suck it Sup Forumsntrarians.

I see that Monstress is still doing insane numbers.

Why are you being gleeful that the YA imprint is doing badly?

>X-Fags want OML, Mystique, Rogue Gambit Angel, Bishop, Fantomex and Psylocke

Two clouds weren't enough

He has shit taste.

Fans of the imprint are obnoxious shitters especially fans of Shade.

stop feeding the underage

Case in point.

I'm a fan of Shade that has never posted on Sup Forums about the book, but I do talk about it IRL, why are they (we?) obnoxious?

>Metal #1 this month
>Mister Miracle #1 this month
Add on the 2 issues of Batman, that's at least 4 spots already confirmed

JULY 2017 VS. JULY 2016 COMICS
-26.60%

>X-Men doing extremely well
>Inhumans on the other hand are dying and Scott Buck is the killing bullet to the head

Perlmutter must be pulling a hissy fit right now.

July wasn’t a great month for DC it seems.

>I'm a fan of Shade that has never posted on Sup Forums about the book, but I do talk about it IRL
You're obnoxious because you're a lying piece of shit. Glad this turd is flopping.

Mr. Miracle won't be a top 10 comic

Okay.

This cover would be a lot better if they were riding inside a jeep.

Too bad that soule sucks balls

the only character I dont like there is Gambit
80s Mystique who was a rational terrorist, not treacherous, and comparable to IRA, like in the Days of the Future Past comic, was great.

They ruined her with the "now I am good, now I betray everybody, I am always changing lol" thing.

> 3. BATMAN #26 (DC)
> 4. BATMAN #27 (DC)
> 5. SECRET EMPIRE #6 (MAR)
> 6. SECRET EMPIRE #7 (MAR)

Marvel on suicide watch, yet again

It might. DC is pushing it fairly strongly and even New Super-Man debuted in the top 10.

Probably a 20-30k book when all is said and done though.

Do these figures represent the number of copies shipped out to stores or the actual copies bought at the stores? Everywhere I've seen Secret Empire sells like shit

Copies sent to stores.

And this is shit for an event even if the copies were moving. It's already below 100k.
