Really wish Spider-Boy and Superior were ranking higher. Especially as some of the books in the top 10 (Batman) are just terrible and very entertaining at the moment.

If you’re in the top 50, you’re doing something right!

Thanks for that! Originally Posted by wleakr

Big Kudos to ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN for not only taking the #1 spot, but also having its first issue do so phenomenally well, that it showed up in the Top 50 too! That's a stunning (and well-deserved) feat! Seriously, that's CRAZY!Last edited by Dan Slott; 03-06-2024 at 05:54 PM.

Oh, I know that both books are doing well, and I am glad for the success please don't get me wrong. Congratulations on that. Ultimate is doing really well. It is a relly nice time to be a Spider-Fan. Originally Posted by Dan Slott

USM is insane, I’m ecstatic to see it do this well. Who could’ve guessed the Ultimate Marvel line would be reinvigorating comics again? Real “lightning striking twice” moment. Originally Posted by Kevinroc

All 3 issues of Joker Year One. Villain sells better than most heroes these days. Lol. Originally Posted by Trapgodthanos

Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

Guess the Hickman hype, the use of the name Ultimate for marketing, and the first real attempt at an Elseworlds Marvel line in forever worked out. Originally Posted by Vordan

It's funny that G.O.D.S. didn't get the Hickman hype like USM did. (Not that G.O.D.S. did bad or anything like that, but the difference between it and USM is like night and day.) Originally Posted by Frontier

Yeah, GODS was always going to be an extremely hard sell. It feels more like an indie comic than a Marvel comic no matter how much you throw Dr. Strange into it.

The first issue of Ultimate X-Men topped Bleedingcool's top 10 for this week. And the 3rd reprint of Ultimate Spider-Man 1 ranked at 10 in this week's BC top 10.
In other news, Spectacular Spider-Men 1 ranked 3rd behind UX-Men and Batman on this week's BC top 10.

Ultimate X-men is a unique fun book, so I get that one. But Batman? Yeesh. To be polite all I will say is that Chip Zdarsky Spider-Man work is way better than his Batman run has been. But people do like it I guess so there is that. Originally Posted by Kevinroc

With Spider-Man and Batman, it has never been a matter of people liking or not what they are reading. Their books have always a minimum of sales, and with just that alone, they are always gonna be on top. Originally Posted by SturdyMike89
