Archie Comics Sales Figures

Johanna Draper-Carlson has some info that's rarely seen online - actual sales numbers for Archie Comics, plus some rather astute analysis. I have to admit, I'm kind of surprised at how poorly the monthly issues sell, with most of them hovering around the 10,000 copies and issue mark (Sonic and Jughead both sell about triple that, oddly enough). However, the digests more than make up for that with the reprint bonanzas moving anywhere from 30K to over 100K a pop. The bottom line?

The interesting thing about this list is that last year, four titles declined. This year, everything shows growth except for the last two books on the list.
