La pasada semana Diamond Comic Distributors, hacía públicos los datos de ventas del primer mes del año, que ha reflejado un sensible descenso del 5% en las ventas frente al mes de enero del año pasado.
El top 10 del ranking de los cómics más vendidos del mes sigue estando dominado por Marvel, donde coloca sus colecciones en 8 de los 10 primeros puestos. Este dominio se basa en las colecciones de la saga de Star Wars y a los nuevos lanzamientos del Nuevo Universo Marvel `Old Man Logan nº 1´, `Spiderman/Deadpool nº 1”y `Uncanny X-Men nº1´. El primer puesto se lo ha arrebatado el nº 150 de `Walking Dead´ demostrando que la historia narrada por Robert Kirkman centrada ahora en Alexandria sigue teniendo tirón entre los aficionados. Por parte de DC ha conseguido situar el nº 48 de la serie regular de Batman en el puesto nº 8.
Fuera de los primeros puestos, la editorial Boom! figura en el puesto nº 39 con el estreno de la colección `Power Rangers nº 0´, mientras que IDW no aparece hasta la posición nº 99 con el capítulo 4 de su adaptación de la película Regreso al futuro, y no es hasta el puesto 137 que figura la editorial Dark Horse con un número especial de invierno dedicado a la saga de Hellboy.
En lo referente a tomos, es un dominio absoluto de Marvel, con 9 de los 10 primeros puestos copados por obras de la editorial de la Casa de las Ideas. El primer puesto es para el segundo tomo de Darth Vader realizado por la pareja formada por Kieron Gillen y el español Salvador Larroca. Entre el dominio de Marvel se cuela en el puesto nº 9 el tomo de “Invasor Zim” de la editorial Oni Press.
Marvel sigue dominando el mercado con una cuota de mercado del 48%, frente a DC que ocupa la segunda posición con un 24%. Completa el podio Image con un 11%. Por detrás se encuentran en cuarta posición IDW Publishing con una participación del 3,48% unidad, Dark Horse Comics en quinto lugar en el mes con una cuota 2,51%.
