Usually when I say someone retiring is the end of an era, I mean that the way that person did business is gone. In this case I really do mean it is the end of the era of New York publishing in general, and New York comics publishing in specifics.

reetings, sales charts fans! It's time once again to look at DC's sales figures. While DC's top seller, Batman, slid to #5 on the Diamond chart--behind the debut issues of Orphan Black (Loot Crate-enhanced), Darth Vader, and Spider-Gwen; and the second issue of Star Wars--things were in fact a bit rosier for DC in February. Especially compared to January, as the Harley Quinn freely-orderable variant was a good deal more popular with those doing the ordering than last month's Flash variant. In most cases adding 2K - 4K more copies for those titles with the HQ variant. (A couple, Batman & Flash, went up about 8K; while Batgirl mysteriously dropped instead.) For the most part, DC is in a holding pattern right now, as many titles are coming to a close next month and the move-induced mega-event Convergence on the slate for April & May followed by a sizable relaunch in June. So you'll have to forgive the brevity of many of the comments below, as their just isn't that much to say this month that hasn't already been said before. Don't worry, I promise that the next few month's DC sales charts will have plenty more excitement!

The PReacher pilot is HAPPENING. I never believed this day would come. Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's scabrous, epic take on religion, armageddon and personal honor is still violent and shocking. But it's happening.

A controversial variant cover of Batgirl has been pulled following objections—including objections raised by the book's creative team.

This week DC has been revealing new looks for its core characters, including some startling fashion changes. The new looks have been revealed in various places We've cobbled it all up for you below but here's the shorter version:

Greetings, sales charts fans! It's time once again to look at DC's sales figures. This month, nearly all of the comics with freely-orderable variants (Flash 75th anniversary) saw a drop of 3-4K. We've seen drops on these in the past months, but they were so uniform this month that I thought that maybe something else was going on. But the more I looked at it, I became convinced that it was the case the retailers as a whole just dropped their orders on these.
