Event season rolled on in November, as INFINITY reached its climax, while the Ultimate imprint's CATACLYSM got under way. Meanwhile, ASTONISHING X-MEN was relaunched as AMAZING X-MEN, and the MARVEL KNIGHTS X-MEN and LONGSHOT SAVES THE MARVEL UNIVERSE minis kick off. Though DC had four books in the top five - BATMAN, HARLEY QUINN, SUPERMAN UNCHAINED and FOREVER EVIL - Marvel still edged them in their share of the North American direct market, leading by 34% to 32% in unit terms, and 30% to 29% in dollars. As has already been pointed out on The Beat, this means Marvel and DC's combined dollar share dips below 60% - something that hasn't happened in a decade.
