Marvel Month to Month Sales Charts: November 2014—A Tale of Three Events

19
Wow! So that is a lot of AXIS, Spider-Verse, and Death of Wolverine coming out this month. Spider-Verse topped the charts this month, with Axis and some new debuts close behind, but I can’t help but wonder if these events are starting to cannibalize each other’s sales a bit.

Today things are clearly different.
