New CTB #1 and #2 both going for a third printing, and #3 going for a second one. I'm curious what the actual numbers will be for these issues.

New CTB #1 and #2 both going for a third printing, and #3 going for a second one. I'm curious what the actual numbers will be for these issues. Usually they start coming in around now, at the latest by next Tuesday. It will certain be a contrast between a smaller company and one of the two giants.

Looks like I'll be using the comicron link a lot more, icv2 has decided (for now) to put the top 500 monthly comics list behind a paywall. So what was the move to Marvel good for sales wise?
4 Conan The Barbarian #1 Marvel 100,963
46 Conan The Barbarian #2 Marvel 37,906
Hmm...does this mean their regular number is going to be around the high end of DH's #? We'll have to see over the next few months. Of course as usual it doesn't count dudes like me who are now digital only. but nice to see 100K.
Trade-wise we get a contrast:
17 CONAN THE BARBARIAN OMNIBUS HC VOL 01 MAR 2,199
114 CONAN READER TP DAR 710
Actually a pretty number for DH's last release. But that omnibus number is HUGE! 1500 would've been a big number.

With that fall for issue # 2 thought I'd check out the DH Conan #2 - 52,157!

Very overrated comic. It is not better than what Dark Horse was doing during their last year at all. Quality-wise...yeah, I'd say it's about on par with that. Just shows you what a big company pushing behind it can do.

They'll have to relaunch the book within the initial 12 part story-arc if orders continue to decline. The omnibus has done exceptionally well, especially considering so few comic shops pick these up these days, I guess the majority of the Direct Market sales come from pre-orders at the store. It'll be interesting to see how well the CtB omnibus edition sell beyond the BWS run.

Captain Marvel 1 $4.99 01/09/19 Marvel 111,391 Guardians of the Galaxy 1 $4.99 01/23/19 Marvel 104,916 Conan The Barbarian 1 $4.99 01/02/19 Marvel 100,963 Amazing Spider-Man 14 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 91,697 Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man 1 $4.99 01/09/19 Marvel 78,021 Fantastic Four 6 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 67,167 Amazing Spider-Man 13 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 66,396 Venom 10 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 58,823 Return of Wolverine 4 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 58,560 Avengers 12 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 52,427 Uncanny X-Men 10 $4.99 01/16/19 Marvel 52,365 Uncanny X-Men 8 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 51,292 Avengers 13 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 49,517 Web of Venom Unleashed 1 $4.99 01/09/19 Marvel 47,906 Uncanny X-Men 9 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 46,566 Thor 9 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 44,019 Age of X-Man Alpha 1 $4.99 01/30/19 Marvel 42,022 Uncanny X-Men Annual 1 $4.99 01/23/19 Marvel 41,700 Star Wars 59 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 41,655 Star Wars Age of Republic Jango Fett 1 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 41,371 Captain America 7 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 41,339 Immortal Hulk 12 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 41,331 Immortal Hulk 11 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 41,010 Star Wars 60 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 38,837 Conan The Barbarian 2 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 37,906 Superior Spider-Man 2 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 37,684 Invaders 1 $4.99 01/16/19 Marvel 36,462 Star Wars Age of Republic Obi-Wan Kenobi 1 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 36,392 Infinity Wars Infinity 1 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 35,432 Tony Stark Iron Man 7 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 34,102 Miles Morales Spider-Man 2 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 33,957 Black Widow 1 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 33,853 Doctor Strange 10 $5.99 01/30/19 Marvel 33,603 Man Without Fear 1 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 33,237 Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man 2 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 32,430 X-Force 2 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 32,420 Deadpool 8 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 32,369 Star Wars Age of Republic Special 1 $4.99 01/16/19 Marvel 31,182 Dead Man Logan 3 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 31,113 Champions 1 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 30,893 Marvel Comics Presents 1 $4.99 01/16/19 Marvel 30,698 Man Without Fear 2 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 28,643 Marvel Knights 20Th 6 $4.99 01/30/19 Marvel 27,852 Spider-Gwen Ghost Spider 4 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 27,721 Marvel Knights 20Th 5 $3.99 01/02/19 Marvel 27,386 Man Without Fear 3 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 27,209 Man Without Fear 5 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 26,987 Man Without Fear 4 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 26,892 X-23 8 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 25,980 Punisher 6 $3.99 01/09/19 Marvel 24,682 Punisher 7 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 24,291 Wolverine Long Night Adaptation 1 $4.99 01/02/19 Marvel 23,565 Star Wars Doctor Aphra 28 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 22,976 Black Panther 8 $3.99 01/16/19 Marvel 22,670 Black Panther Vs. Deadpool 4 $3.99 01/30/19 Marvel 21,176 Crypt of Shadows 1 $3.99 01/23/19 Marvel 20,299
I think realistically Conan should be selling around 40k consistently at the 10 issue mark (like the Hulk book highlighted in blue)
Unfortunately, looking at the orders for the 2nd issue it looks like CtB is more likely to sell like the Punisher or Black Panther in red.
