DC Comics Month-to-Month Sales: March 2007

29 - THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD
02/2007: The Brave and the Bold #1 — 92,091 [96,510]
03/2007: The Brave and the Bold #2 — 64,357 (-30.1%)

Mixed signals: The book started out with excellent numbers, but this is a very steep second-issue drop. In part, to be fair, that’s because issue #1 came with a 1-in-10 variant cover edition and #2 didn’t; and the 4,419 additional units sold of #1 in March do suggest that there’s demand for the book. Still, a third of the debut issue’s sales has evaporated, and that’s not very encouraging.

THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #2 (Mar 2007) DC Comics

Fans on the lookout for George Pérez at Wizard World Texas this weekend didn't have to look farther than one booth—but once found, the artist was determined to make fans pay.

"I'm here to make money for the Hero Initiative, and so far I'm doing great there," explained the legendary creator of his work with the fund whose primary mission is to support long-standing and retired creators. "I think I made at least a grand yesterday, and I'll probably make another grand today. My goal was always $500 a day, but I'm a sucker for charity."

In a rare moment when he didn't have a lineup of autograph-seekers toting stacks of everything from classic issues of Avengers to his most recent work on Infinite Crisis, the always-excited Pérez updated Wizard Universe on the status of his newest gig—penciling DC Comics' relaunch of team-up series The Brave and the Bold for writer Mark Waid.

"I'm drawing issue #2 right now, and the book's scheduled to come out in February," said Pérez. "I believe this weekend Bob Wiacek will have finished inking the book, and Tom Smith has colored about the first 16 pages. The book's running fine schedule-wise, and I'm on page 6 or 7 of issue #2 right now and doing the cover of issue #3. There's also a variant cover they asked me to draw for issue #1. Every time I'm making momentum, they add more stuff to my schedule to make me work harder to keep the schedule."

Though the fire alarm played havoc with the schedule of the panel just prior, the DC Nation panel at the Baltimore Comic-Con began without a hitch at noon on Saturday, with DCU Executive Editor Dan Didio opening the panel with "It's the special fire drill version of DC Nation."
