Hulk then & then...
Wondering why Hulk dropped 25 places in sales between July and November? Well...

In July, Hulk featured the death of Betty Banner (nee Ross) by radiation poisoning, the work of the Abomination, we would find out.

In November, Hulk featured the Circus of crime and the notorious scene where Hulk is choked to unconsciousness by a snake, That's right, a normal snake.

I, for one, am not surprised.

Hey, I loved Joe Casey's Hulk run.

The Hulk's slip
If I remember, the slip happened when Peter David was taken off the book.

Would editorial ever look at sales returns after a year and admit "OK we slipped up" and invite the author back on?

Just wondering...

Daredevil
Whoa! Look at them Daredevil numbers! It was nearly dead in the last post around 25,000, up to 85,000! That's 'cause of Kevin Smith & Joe Quesada.

Numbers?
Numbers do mean something. If they didnt you wouldnd waste to posts discussing how meaningless they are or how the information is incorrect. The fans that stopped buying your comics (like myself) may be lifeless but we are not stupid. Here you go some meaningless insignificant sales numbers that are all wrong.

2 Amazing Spider-Man 546 $3.99 Marvel 127,856
9 Amazing Spider-Man 547 $2.99 Marvel 101,132
10 Amazing Spider-Man 548 $2.99 Marvel 97,881
3 Amazing Spider-Man 549 $2.99 Marvel 101,048
9 Amazing Spider-Man 550 $2.99 Marvel 90,817
13 Amazing Spider-Man 551 $2.99 Marvel 88,029
4 Amazing Spider-Man 552 $2.99 Marvel 89,808
8 Amazing Spider-Man 553 $2.99 Marvel 82,624

19 Amazing Spider-Man 562 $2.99 Marvel 71,382
