HAPPY #2 | IMA |
NO surprises. It’s just a monthly reminder of the monopoly/dominance Marvel and DC have on these numbers. I can think of an even dozen higher quality books that should be on the list. But that’s not what this is about, is it? It’s most ordered books – - you can’t blame the retailers for sticking with the tried and true. At least Walking Dead got in (not that surprising) and Happy! (that is a surprise!).
