Each year we talk about the previous year's sales in the store and today we're going to be looking at the Top 100 Graphic Novel and Books Sales for 2019.

I am John and I will be your host today.
#dmsales2019 Bruno will be along sometime next week to talk about single issue sales, but for today, it's all books.

Before that, and just to get you an idea about our year, overall it was a great business year, the best in 3, and the busiest December ever.

Ok, it's time for our run down of our 100 top selling graphic novels of 2018.

Buckle up because this is going to take a while, and yeah I'll be taking breaks here and there.

For coffee.

Plus I'm still in work so, I might have to do some of that too. Before we start I just want to give you a quick overview of our year in graphic novels.

This year we sold 5113 different titles in store. (that's a lot)

Graphic novel sales were UP on 2017 by 4%. (yay)

Part works aren't included.

Hi. Welcome to Twitter.Com, more specifically Big Bang Comics's feed, where tonight we will be talking about comic sales in the past two weeks and give you the best selling singles of June 2018 here in store. We do this usually on Mondays, but due to life and logistics (and having to do a very successful Midnight Opening for BATMAN #50) we are exceptionally catching up on a Thursday night.

Hello, you wonderful people, it's time to look at some comic sales!

My name is Bruno I'll be your host tonight while we take a quick look at the weeks of the 6th and the 15th of June! (we couldn't do it last week so we'll have to catch up now. And life's little vicissitudes keep getting in the way so don't have time to go in deep, meaning we'll focus mainly on #1s, cool? Cool)
