: I put together this list of sales figures as
: part of a post regarding CW sales on another
: site, but I thought it was interesting
: enough on its own to post here on the Ms.
: Marvel board.
:
: Ms. Marvel #5 (pre-CW) 38,900
: Ms. Marvel #6 (CW tie-in) 68,200
: Ms. Marvel #7 (CW tie-in) 65,000
: Ms. Marvel #8 (CW tie-in) 62,900 (+ an
: average of 26,166 readers, or 1.67x for CW)
: Ms. Marvel #9 (post-CW) 37,900
: Ms. Marvel #10 34,300
: Ms. Marvel #11 32,300
: Ms. Marvel #12 30,758 (26% net loss of
: readers from issue #5)
:
: As you can see, it's not promising. The
: title is consistently losing about 2K per
: month.
: Do Ms. Marvel fans believe is a stable sales
: figure somewhere at or below the current
: numbers? Any guesses?
: I am something of a Ms. Marvel fan who
: considered picking the series up. However,
: I browsed the title for several issues and I
: don't think the writing is consistent, let
: alone consistently good. The art is at
: least acceptable, so I don't think the
: problem lies there.
: What is your feeling on the matter as fans
: and (probably) purchasers? Where and how is
: the writer dropping the ball? How could
: things be improved?
: Do you believe the writer would resort to
: shock tactics (ala Thunderbolts) to restore
: sales?
