Rebirth is such a hit at our store that I spent several hours today modifying our display racks in an attempt to fit more books without sacrificing the full view of each cover. And then I ran out of raw materials to continue the expansion. Curse you DC for making books people actually want to buy!

How does this compare to the N52 boom? How long did that last? I know I personally went all in on N52 but have been very reserved with Rebirth titles

I imagine the purpose of all of this is to support a stock price, because if it came out that Marvel was actually #2, that might ding Disney. It is not impossible they would lose more money having their shares drop three percent or whatever, than they would lose literally giving their comics away.

I imagine it has more to do with ESPN's Disney order cost cutting and the resulting hemorrhaging of talent. Marvel knows what's coming if they miss a target so anything they can do to keep the House of Ideas afloat.
