Diamond's Top 10 for April 2010: DC has a great month

News

I normally don’t care to post, or even read things like this, but when I saw the headline today I figured I’d scope it. I’m not the kind to check these charts and ramble on about how I don’t agree, or how I do agree, with the sales info….well, that’s why I don’t read it. I tend to get frustrated when I see books I love that are barely scraping by while seeing books like Red Hulk sell in the top twenty. It’s frustrating. I mean, Spider-Girl is always so low. It shouldn’t be. It’s sooo good.

Anyway, let’s scope the top ten.

  1. Brightest Day #0
  2. The Flash #1
  3. Green Lantern #53
  4. Batman and Robin #11
  5. New Avengers #64
  6. Uncanny X-Men #523
  7. Invincible Iron Man #25
  8. Green Lantern Corps #47
  9. Ultimate Comics Avengers 2 #1
  10. Thor #609

DC has the top four spots, as well as another to give them half of the top ten. Marvel maintained more market share by a little over twelve percent, but hey, little bits at a time. My real hope lays in that the industry grows, that DC and Marvel find their market share grow more equal, and that everybody thrives.

Hard to do in this economy, but hey, I love comics.
