Yeah, it's not looking too good overall. I'm glad about Darkwing doing well, but you also have to remember that #1s sell significantly more copies than a #2 or #3 -- so expect a dropoff in the coming months.<br><br>
I am very curious if the DuckTales theme has helped Uncle Scrooge's numbers any. But seeing as how it didn't make the Top 300 this month, there's no way of knowing. Maybe next month? It's interesting to note, however, that Gemstone's Scrooge book never dipped below 4,000 copies. And that was with a cover price more than twice what the Boom! edition is. <br>
<br>Meanwhile, Sonic the Hedgehog still moves around 8,000 issues a month. And it's based on a video game series that's been declining in quality over the past decade or so. :-/<br><br>Hardly seems fair, with Mickey supposedly being the most famous cartoon character in the world and all.<br>

On the upside, Darkwing Duck sold 6,300 copies....at 3.99 per copy. <br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div></div><div class="h5">On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 11:15 AM, Kneon Transitt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hey.kneon@gmail.com" target="_blank">hey.kneon@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
