Does this mean that Doomsday will guest star in every title come November?

Did we NOT see a 50th anniversary for John Stewart?
The line of folks with huge anniversaries starts and ends with Cyborg, Starfire and Raven's 40th being ignored.Kyle Rayner has a 30th anniversary in a few years. You think they'd honor him the same way?
Along with Mal and Bumblee-Dc's first black heroes. Followed by Black Lightning, Vixen, Firestorm, Hawkman and so many others.
Who couldn't even warrant a mention.
Static better get something for his 30th next year.
DC does not care because you will have stores OVER ORDER those books.Jesus Christ you weren’t kidding. I know it’s her 30th but does she still have the sales power for all that?
This is why we are having issues.
Batman does 100K to stores. 90K are bought by the public.
Green Lantern Season 2 does 45K. 35K are bought.
Both sold 90% of product.
We got more Batman because 45K copies got ordered.
DC doesn't care about unsold to customer books.
God, as a Static fan, I'd love it if they released a paperback of the original 1993 run for his 30th anniversary.
Olympus Rebirth is a nice surprise! It's good to see that the Wonder'verse is still expanding even if it is mostly through one-shots.
Mary Marvel is finally here!!!
The Artgerm Poison Ivy variant looks inspired by Takara's Pride Variant, which is a nice touch.
The World's Finest cover is just a load of good vibes. Perfect.
Harley Quinn might still have the sales power but - according to the ICv2 sales ranking - her monthly doesn't. It's been outside of the Top 100 for months. Now the question is whether DC's judgement is that bad or if ICv2's sample size is simply too small.
Isn't that Harley Eat Bang Tour doing better than the ongoing?

Olympus Rebirth

Black Adam #3
ICV2 not only has a too small sample size, ignores anything outside NA but it also overly favours titles whose release date is the start of the month
ICV2 tacks sales during one calendar month so titles that are released towards the middle or end of the month ICV2 only tracks their ales for half the month while the titles that release at the start of the month get tracked for the full month.
Tom Taylor said the site is unreliable. I don't know why people still use that site for tracking sales since it's so flawed and essential providing misleading info
My buy-list:
-Batman - One Bad Day: Riddler (I'm all in on this series of one-shots)
-Sword of Azrael #1 (I like Azrael)
-Sword of Azrael: Dark Knight of the Soul (I didn't read Urban Legends)
-DCEASED: War of the Undead Gods #1 (I have all the DCEASED issues so far, and I love them)
-Dark Crisis #3
-Dark Crisis: Worlds Without the Justice League - Green Lantern
-Dark Crisis: Young Justice #3
-Flash #785 (Just for the Dark Crisis tie-in story)
-DC Saved by the Belle Reve (DC had my money at Super Sons)
-Poison Ivy #3
-Harley Quinn: The Animated Series - The Real Sidekicks of New Gotham Special (I like the show, I like the last comic, I'm in)
-Wonder Girl 2022 Annual (Bring this series back, please)
-Olympus: Rebirth
-The New Champion of Shazam #1 (I like Mary Marvel)
-Tales of the Human Target
-Batgirls #9
-Batman/Superman World's Finest #6 (best series at DC)
-Black Adam #3
-Blood Syndicate Season 1 #4
-Deathstroke Inc #12
-Duo #4 (I loved the first issue)
-I Am Batman #12 (Loving this series, wish it started better to attract more readers)
-Multiversity: Teen Justice #3

-Robin #17 (Sad to see this is Williamson's last issue)
-Superman: Son of Kal-El #14
-Jurassic League #4
-Young Justice: Targets #2
Large list... at least I'm liking my pull list so far.
He got a hardcover reprinting an assortment of old material and some essays but nothing along the lines of the celebratory one-shots we got for other characters.
I think it's flawed to assume that all these shops are overordering books and just sitting on thousands of copies they're unable to move. I'm sure some percentage of shops are run by fans who order books on the basis of what they hope will sell rather than what they know will sell in their stores but the others are ordering based off what their customer base will buy - otherwise these guys aren't gunna stay in business.DC does not care because you will have stores OVER ORDER those books.
This is why we are having issues.
Batman does 100K to stores. 90K are bought by the public.
Green Lantern Season 2 does 45K. 35K are bought.

DC doesn't care about unsold to customer books.
I wish "The Flash" run would get a bigger seller top but still disappointed that we only could obtain one Flash book per month.
A moment of silence that CW did more Flash contents than any DC properties.
