Digital Comics Best-Sellers for January 12, 2014

the-walking-dead-119

It’s time again to take a look at what comics are topping the digital best-seller lists.

ComiXology

1. The Walking Dead #119
2. Injustice: Year Two #1
3. Avengers World #1
4. Earth 2 #19
5. Detective Comics #27
6. All-New X-Factor #1
7. Cataclysm: The Ultimates’ Last Stand #3
8. Punisher: War Zone #1
9. Young Avengers, vol. 2 #15
10. Batman/Superman #7

The Top Ten chart leads off with two perennial best-sellers, The Walking Dead and the second year of Tom Taylor’s game-inspired Injustice. Taylor is killing it these days, as his other series, Earth 2, shows up in the number 4 spot. Detective Comics #27, which marks the 75th anniversary of Batman’s first appearance, is on the charts, as are the third issue of the Marvel Ultimates crossover Cataclysm and the first issue of Peter David’s new X-Factor story. Overall, Marvel won the week with five issues on the chart, DC had four, and Image had one.

Kindle

1. Hyperbole and a Half
2. Stephen King’s N
3. X-Men: Days of Future Past
4. The Hedge Knight: The Graphic Novel
5. The Walking Dead, vol. 1
6. Big Nate: I Smell a Pop Quiz
7. Infinity Gauntlet
8. The Essential Calvin and Hobbes
9. The Sandman, vol. 1
10. The Walking Dead #119

The Walking Dead charts at Amazon as well, but in the number ten slot; Hyperbole and a Half tops the list for the second week in a row. It looks like Amazon is having a graphic novel sale, as Stephen King’s N, X-Men, and Infinity Gauntlet are all marked way down; lurking in the number 11 slot is the first volume of Saga for $3.99, which is a great deal as well.

Nook

1. Naruto, vol. 64
2. Smallville, Season 11 #1
3. It's a Dog's Life, Snoopy
4. Sandman #1
5. The World According to Lucy…
6. Snoopy at the Bat
7. The Walking Dead, vol. 1
8. Adventures of Superman #1
9. The Walking Dead, vol. 2
10. Batman '66 #1

With the exception of the new volume of Naruto at the head of the list, this is the same books in the same order as last week.

iBooks

1. The Walking Dead #119
2. Injustice: Year 2 #1
3. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic #12
4. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic #1
5. Cemetery Girl: Book One
6. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic #11
7. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic #5
8. Star Trek: Khan #4
9. The Walking Dead, vol. 1
10. My Little Pony Micro series #10 – Luna

Surprisingly, the top two comics on the iBooks list are the same as the ones that top the comiXology list. After that it gets predictably weird, though, with My Little Pony, The Walking Dead, Star Trek, and Charlaine Harris’s new book. That’s an odd mix but not an unusual one, as iBooks often includes some titles not seen anywhere else.
