Absolute Superman #1 by Jason Aaron and Rafa Sandoval utterly smashed the Bleeding Cool Weekly Bestseller list, with three times the same as the next chart-topper, Ultimates #6 from Deniz Camp and Juan Frigeri. And also a boost for Marvel, Aliens Vs Avengers and X-Men. Both also beat the traditional bestseller Batman #154, which was almost beaten by the Batgirl #1 launch. JSA also launches strong, and Something Is Killing The Children #0 makes it on as well. Marvel has five, DC has four, and Boom has one.

Top Ten Bleeding Cool Bestseller List
This is the Top Ten Bleeding Cool Bestseller List, as compiled by over a hundred direct market comic stores from their sales from Wednesday to Friday, the “Wednesday Warriors”. The chart is compiled from actual sales data from up to 150 comic book stores provided by ComicHub, which provides POS services for comic book retailers worldwide – mostly in North America and the UK. These are typically from what might be called mid-range stores, and we run a bunch of them below. Bleeding Cool Bestseller List gives the best-selling reported comic of the week the 100.0 number, and you can see how each title performed as a percentage of that sale. These numbers are based on sales in-store, not orders.
