I can see this happening, I think the best thing that could happen is for them to go to quarterly collect stories. Such a 4 issue length arc compressed into a book. (sorry new comic collector not sure whether or not to call them graphic novels.)

also glad to hear that R&B did so well for the micro series. and sales are still going well for the onging.

Does anyone have sales figures for all the IDW trades so far? And by that I mean the Mirage and Archie collections specifically?

I'd rather someone just post it here. I don't visit any comic websites really.

If you spent less time douching it up here, you would have boatloads of free time to check out other websites.

That is only 3 copies difference from last month. Interesting that three readers were picked up. Come on guys let's push this to an average around 20,000 not a little over 17,000.

The Nick comic dropped by 800 sales though.

Since these comics are mainly aimed at kids instead of adults, its a bit disappointing all the little kids watching the show aren't asking their parents to buy the comic. IDW should get the Nick comic into places like Toys R Us, they sell DC and Marvel comics aimed at kids.

yeah, but i'm sure the majority of little kids who watch the show don't even know about the nick comic. now if it was in a grocery store check out isle...they would sell like hot cakes!

Agreed, the tiny sad comic section of TRU is the perfect place for this to sell mad copies.

I wonder if most of the 7,000 sales of the Nick comic actually come from older TMNT fans like us who follow IDW.

I wonder how much of those sales actually come from little kids asking their parents to buy the comic for them. That's the real target audience, not all the hardcore TMNT fans like us.

There are definitely kids that get it, it's been split evenly between kids and adults that come and get their comics signed when I have a table at cons.

Keep in mind that digital sales aren't reported here. Youngins love those tablets.

#29 seems to have taken a hit. Is that the lowest sales for the main ongoing yet?

City Fall didn't end as strong as I had hoped leading to a personal delayed purchase of issue #29. Perhaps I wasn't the only one who felt this way.

Both the ongoing and Nick comic were down about 1,000 sales from the previous month. The Shredder micro didn't do all that hot either.

Pretty disappointing to see sales slip. We're only 2 years into IDW TMNT and I would hope to get at least a 5 year run.

Quit your bitching, you negative ****. TMNT is still IDW's second best selling franchise. And the Shredder micro sold more than the B&R issue, which sold more than the Hun issue before it.

Would you take 4% of the Utrom Empire #1 total to get a count of the 1:25 variant or is it 4% of the total # (11,084)? There has been a recent spike in prices for the Eastman variant cover. Trying to figure out if it's due to anythng else aside from market demand.
