February 4, 2012 6:55 am LOTR was popular in a big way before the movies. It is after all the best-selling english-language book from the 20th century. The movies just made it popular in a big, big, big way.
December 6, 2011 3:03 pm @Conor. You're right. Some DC books sell more than double that of Aquaman. Some sell less than half. I know it's the gross revenue in that example where Joshua mistakenly said profit... Do you think it costs the DC machine more than the hypothetical $47k to make a single issue of Aquaman?
December 6, 2011 2:23 pm Didn't say it wasn't. Last I heard the UK added around 10% to the total. The main point was the 700 issues thing. Marvel was making something like $10 million profit a quarter from its publishing division alone a couple of years ago. Not sure what the state of play is today.
December 6, 2011 11:29 am @Maty. DC publishes something like 700 issues a year... That figure also only includes North American sales.
November 16, 2011 5:57 pm It's funny that you bring this up since iFanboy was the first place that I recall (in my not so many years) that emphasised the difference between medium and genre when talking about comics.

January 8, 2011 4:09 pm Congratulations on 10 years in the biz! Tis a fine achievement. The great content has kept me coming back for years and I hope there are many more to come. This piece of the internet that you guys have carved out for yourselves is a fine accomplishment and the fact that you guys are still getting better is a testament to the hard work and creativity of everyone involved with this wonderful site. Thank you, iFanboys.
