Sono stati pubblicati i dati relativi alle vendite dei fumetti negli USA nel mese di maggio. Senza delle grosse sorprese, grazie a Secret Empire e al 150esimo numero di Venom, Marvel conquista il primo posto. In calce potete trovare l’intera lista.
Ad aiutare La Casa delle Idee ci ha pensato anche l’annuncio del nuovo Deadpool, che ha generato delle ottime vendite di Bad Blood e l’uscita del secondo film dedicato ai Guardiani della Galassia. Staremo a vedere a giugno con Dark Days: The Forge, che sembra aver colpito i lettori statunitensi.
