NAA jumped like 800? Dang.

It'll be interesting to see the numbers for #44. Of course we won't get those for another couple months, I'm guessing, but it sounds like it's selling out in places.

*ToTheNines* · 03-21-2015, 11:25 PM

It's sold out in like 6 of my surrounding shops. Numbers won't be crazy though, since I doubt they printed a ton of them.

*CyberCubed* · 03-21-2015, 11:32 PM

Mutanimals didn't do too well, makes me wonder if the upcoming April/Casey mini will sell any better.

I really don't think A&C will sell that great. Maybe as a trade it'll pick up some steam with the indie crowd?

On the other hand, my shop sold through #44 like hotcakes. I know it wasn't marketed as a stunt issue but it seems to have gotten the effects of one.

.

Yeah. I'm pretty sure Mutanimals is the lowest selling debut for a mini though at only 10,000 sales. Most of the others debuted much higher especially for their first issue.

*ToTheNines* · 03-22-2015, 10:24 AM

Worth mentioning that Mutanimals was asterisked and noted as such on the comicchron list

"Items marked with asterisks[*] had their reported orders slightly reduced due to returnability."

Joey Kamikaze · 03-26-2015, 02:58 PM

So yeah, based on reorder numbers, #44 is going to do pretty damn well. #45 probably will as well.

Speaking as a total ignoramus of the comic industry, what does that mean?

*ToTheNines* · 04-14-2015, 03:30 PM

March numbers:
146. TMNT #44 - 14,604
208. Mutanimals #2 - 8,980
274. New Animated Adventures #21 - 5,949

*CyberCubed* · 04-14-2015, 03:32 PM

Seems like the Mutanimals mini is on track to be IDW's worst-selling TMNT comic. Even with digital sales its probably not too much higher. The almost 1000 reader drop to 8,900 from the already low 10,000 sales is rather bizarre.

You would think the casuals would like to read a comic with a whole bunch of cool TMNT mutants who were already established in the main series.

Nope, all they give a damn about is Don, Mike, Raph and Leo.

The next Mutanimal adventure should guest star Mikey, his popularity could carry the book.

~~AquaParade~~ · 04-14-2015, 08:45 PM

as a reader of the main title and most of the micro series, I have absolutely no interest in a Mutanimals series.

Why not? Its part of the main continuity, Old Hob/Slash, etc. are all established likeable characters, and wouldn't you try to read everything in IDW continuity regardless?

I would never skip a mini-series. I even read that ridiculous X-files crossover just because it had the IDW TMNT in it.

I was actually considering picking up that story. Is it any good?

Mormegil · 04-14-2015, 10:19 PM

The mutanimals is just like all the other micro series, a side story that adds to the main line. These first two issues have been really good. Best micro series stories since the villans imo.

The only thing I can think of is the name mutanimals is putting some people off. Which is a shame because no one should miss out on Slash kicking some ass, especially if you read the ongoing series.

I can't wait for mutagen man to lose it and start whooping up on people.

Mike Lowrey · 04-14-2015, 10:28 PM

Did I miss the numbers for #43? Couldn't find them. Also, why are the numbers for #44 so low when it was such a popular issue?
