Speeding Bullet's best-selling issues of 2011
DC DOMINATES LAST YEAR'S SALES WITH NEW 52
1. Justice League #1
This should come as no surprise. The Hollywood Reporter reports DC's flagship reboot title sold 361,138 copies in 2011. It was the first out of the gate for DC's New 52, and sales did not disappoint. By Geoff Johns & Jim Lee.
2. Batman #1 Writer Scott Snyder made big waves with his run on Detective Comics before the reboot, and he was rewarded with the Batman title's larger audience. By Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo & Jonathan Glapion. 3. Action Comics #1 A young, brash Superman in work boots and blue jeans tries to make a difference in a corrupt world. By Grant Morrison & Rags Morales. 4. Justice League #2 Selling so many of the first issue where the ending hinted at a possible throwdown between Batman and the Man of Steel, how could people not pick up the second issue? By Johns & Lee. 5. Superman #1 Everyone's favorite Kryptonian seems new yet still familiar as he fights to save Metropolis. Readers also get to see the reboot's new dynamic between Clark Kent & Lois Lane. By George Perez & Jesus Merino. 6. Batman #2 The masses love their Batman. Snyder & co. pop up on the list again as Batman's first story arc in the New 52 takes shape with an all-new, terrifying villain. By Snyder, Capullo & Glapion. 7. Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #160 Marvel's first appearance on the list is a jaw dropper, featuring the highly-publicized death of the Ultimate universe's Peter Parker. By Brian Michael Bendis & Mark Bagley. 8. Fear Itself #1 This was the first issue of a Marvel event that spanned the length of summer and on into early fall. Picking this issue up was almost a necessity as much of the Marvel Universe was rocked by the events of Fear Itself. By Matt Fraction & Stuart Immonen. 9. Aquaman #1 Aquaman has renounced the throne of Atlantis, but he does so just as a new threat rises from the deepest corners of the ocean. By Johns, Ivan Reis & Joe Prado. 10. Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1 This issue signaled a new era in Marvel's Ultimate universe as Peter Parker was officially replaced as Spider-Man by the half-black, half-Hispanic Miles Morales. By Bendis & Sara Pichelli.
