The latest round of data from the NPD BookScan has arrived via ICv2 with what was selling when it came to the superhero side of things for the month of February 2019. This month has DC Comics showing a bit more variety with the eleven titles it has on the chart, including the topper with Mister Miracle setting the tone. The familiar books are here when it comes to Batman but it’s good to see Injustice getting some attention and tht the Dark Nights material is doing well in general.
Vertigo slides in with a couple of titles as well with V for Vendetta being a mainstay as well as the 30th-anniversary edition of the first Sandman volume.
Marvel Comics grabs seven slots that include Star Wars: Darth Vader at the top along with some fun Cosmic Ghost Rider and Black Panther among others. We also get The Life of Captain Marvel charting high.
