One year after the big relaunch, DC wanted to give its superhero line another jolt by borrowing a gimmick from the glory days of 1994 and releasing "zero" issues of all of the "New 52" titles. In terms of average sales, this means an increase of more than 1,000 units compared to August. Of course, these are sales to retailers, and increases based on this type of gimmick never stick around for subsequent issues, but the fact that retailers have enough faith in DC to support the initiative to this degree is good news, certainly.

The AVENGERS VS X-MEN crossover built towards its finale in September (though the actual final issue slipped to the next month). And - well, yes, that's about it in terms of notable releases in September. Schedules don't get much quieter than this, and with many of the titles also on their way to an imminent relaunch, the main points of interest on this month's chart really involve seeing how recent launches are getting on.

The Siegel's have won several legal rounds, leading Warners to adopt very aggressive tactics to delay enforcing a decision to award the Siegel family half of Superman's copyright -- a decision which a court reached 13 years ago, in 1999.
