I've heard a theory that put online sales at roughly 10%. Maybe a little less.
And I've heard the same from my own, for what it's worth. I just wish it was a better source. Ethnographic sources are nice but numbers are better.

I'd say online sales would vary book by book, Ms. Marvel would be selling a lot more digitally than a Batman or Superman. I should ask my store how there sales have been going, but at the end of the day Marvel are saying they're not doing any worse and they'd know more than anyone else if that's true.

Yeah, at my store, Marvel's selling well. Image is too. DC, however, is not.
Looking at the overall Diamond numbers for 2015, that seems to be a trend.

So long as we're talking research - bias ^^.

I don't think Marvel have to do any research to determine how well their books are doing, they just have to pull up the sales data.

Snyder and Capullo's Batman is great as always. Basically all of the new Marvel stuff is good-to-awesome.

Dr Fate is good. Martian Manhunter. Omega Men is fantastic.
Aquaman waaaas good, but was a bit rubbish underneath Bunn.

My local comic con is just around the corner and I'm looking at getting into a few series. Can anyone tell me how Nightwing/Grayson, Green Arrow, and Justice League are once New 52 hit?

Nightwing is meh. Grayson is amazing. Green Arrow is only good under Lemire's pen. Justice League starts out okay and gets really good during Throne of Atlantis (vol. 3).

Haven't read Nightwing or Justice league but I agree with Drake about GA and Grayson.

It is surprising, but God, I had such a crush on her back in the day. That alone might get me to check out at least the first issue.

I'll try it. But I've been "Lucy and the football"-ed so many times already. The price is a good point, though.

I swear, if this is true, this is everything I've wanted since I got out of my initial "golly, all comics are great" phase when I really jumped into comics with the New 52. Hot damn, if we keep the forward momentum of stories like Grayson, Batman, Justice League, and Batgirl, and combine them with classic legacies like Wally, the original TT, etc. it'll be amazing!
