It outsold several other Marvel #1's and is outselling several ongoing Marvel titles (e.g. Moon Knight, X-Men forever).

Amazing drop off from top spots to end of top ten though - DC can have more top ten books, but the drop off still can't get them a higher position - that gap on Avengers to Siege is crazy.I'm not you.
So you know I'm right.

May was one of those months in which i totally agree with the title selling more.Since Avengers#1 rocked and was one of the best starts for a new comic book in some time now.
Amazing Spider-Man should be in better spots that the Top 25,for some time now it have been all sort of awesome and been having some great Spider-Man stories.I dont remember many other periods of time in which A.S.M. had been so consistently so good as it had been in the last three years.
I am guessing that Thunderbolts in the next months will have better sales,with the stunning new direction it had by Jeff Parker.
In which this title returned to its origins with a original new roster of characters.
And Spider-Man Fever not apearing in the Top 100 is disapointing.Pull List:Uncanny Avengers,Avengers,Superior Spider-Man,Daredevil,All New X-Men,Hawkeye,Captain America,Thor:God of Thunder,Swamp Thing,Morbius,Thunderbolts,Iron Man,Fatale.
