    My Little Pony is outselling Hawkeye?
    One one hand, it's good that comics are doing well outside of super heroes. On the other hand, Hawkeye is a great book that everyone should be reading.

    Correction, Hawkeye has great art, while the writing on the other hand leaves a lot to be desired.

    Be glad that Hawkeye leveled out and isnt selling less than 30 k. Many good,different superhero comics like it have suffered in sales despite their quality because they are not another generic Avenger or X-men,JL book.
    Pull List:
    The Walking Dead,Fatale,Near Death,Storm Dogs,Happy,BPRD,XO-Manowar
    American Vampire,Animal Man,Swamp Thing
    Daredevil, Winter Soldier,Indestructible Hulk

    Looking at the Valiant numbers, to think Valiant's Magnus Robot Fighter when it launched was in second place best seller back in the day. We are in a quite different market place.
    Kurt Busiek Says:"Best Avengers Run, Steve Englehart's run in the 1970s. With Roy Thomas's run that preceded it close behind, and the Conway/Shooter/Michelinie run that followed close behind that
