I am doing a presentation on comic book sales and if their has been an influence from the Marvel cinematic universe. Although I am sure that the movies have of course made some people interested in the source material I believe that these numbers pale in comparison to other properties that make the jump from litature to film such as Harry Potter, Hunger Games, and others. The interesting thing is that last I checked, The Avengers is the third highest grossing movie in history and to have something ike that not effect the source material readership in an impactful way is curious indeed. Any thoughts on the matter or numbers would be very much appreciated.
