>Just limiting ourselves to the Top 750, Scholastic surged forward in sales this year by selling an astonishing 6.7 million copies, from 73 placing books This is an incredible 49% growth from last year (4.5 million copies), which itself was up 67% from 2017 (2.7 million). In calculated retail dollars, we’re looking at almost $86.4 million in sales.
>Or, how about this: if you combine the Top 750 performance of all of the Diamond Comic “Premier” publishers (Boom!, Dark Horse, DC, Dynamite, Image and Marvel) those combined best-sellers only amount to 1.4 million books, or only a fifth of Scholastic alone. Scholastic is, quite simply, dominant.

Can anyone stop the Scholastic Juggernaut?

So all the arguments about how kids don’t want comics because there are so many other things competing for their time and money are bullshit then.
Wrong again Zig Forums.

so it's actually adults that don’t want comics because there are so many other things competing for their time and money are bullshit then.

There's already a thread. Lurk moar next time.

there's like 6 korra threads up. we can have two threads for the bookscan report that comes out once a year

Correct. Marvel and DC are just not stepping up when it comes to making content that people would actually read. Instead, they pander to an audience that won't give them the time and day while simultaneously paying lip service while bleeding and pissing off their remaining customers.

How?

Zig Forums doesn't acknowledge things that aren't made by a mega-corporation as existing.

user, that thread is just for big 2 fags and weebs to fling shit at each other, not for actual discussion.
