Three DC New 52 books sell more than 250,000

According to an article from The Hollywood Reporter three of DC's relaunched New 52 titles have sold more than 250,000 copies so far. The list is:

  1. Justice League #1 by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee: 361,138 copies through 5 printings
  2. Batman #1 by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo: 262,379 copies through 2 printings
  3. Action Comics #1 by Grant Morrison and Rags Morales: 250,898 copies through 3 printings
After the decline in sales the industry has had the last 4 or 5 years it is great to see these sales successes and the success of DC's New 52 linewide relaunch.

Still Marvel's Amazing Spider-Man #538 from 2009 remains the highest selling book of this century with over 530,000 copies sold. But who can't forget the Chris Claremnot and Jim Lee classic X-Men #1 and the over 8 MILLION copies that book moved.
