When Star Wars starts anything it is going to be big. Especially if Chewbacca ever unleashes his inner beastial rage and goes 'Wolverine' on ol' Vader. Still with a rumoured 1,000,000 units plus sold of Star Wars #1 (at a whopping $4.99US!) Marvel easily cleared their nearest competition DC, by 18.59% unit share. Image Comics took bronze, and seven of the top ten graphic novels for the month. When it comes to comics, here is how the top six played out:
THE TOP 6 COMICS FOR JANUARY 2015: 1) STAR WARS #1 2) Batman #38 3) Amazing Spider-Man #12 4) Amazing Spider-Man #13 5) Uncanny Avengers #1 6) Wolverines #1 - Full stats after the jump.
MY THOUGHTS: The best news of the month's isn't that Gabrielle Dell'Otto landed three of the above covers, nor is it The Walking Dead at #10, but Ant-Man #1 at spot #7. ANT-MAN IN THE FRICKKIN' TOP TEN COMICS SOLD! Now that ladies and gentlemen truly is the power of Marvel Comics/Studios in action (especially as it's not focussed on Hank Pym - let it go Dan, let it go).
TOP COMICS OF JANUARYS PAST: Shang-Chi took the mutants to Hong Kong in X-Men #62 in 1997. In 2005, New Avengers #2 saw David Finch craftily arrange a cover where Spidey evolved into Cap, evolving into Luke Cage, and Ultimate Fantastic Four #2 won top honours in 2004. With the upcoming movie looking based on these issues, expect them to disappear from back issue bins shortly.
