The comic sells out at distributor level.

Call me old fashion or just a stubborn collector who doesn't like change, but I'm not too thrilled that they killed Snake Eyes and that that he's being replaced by a teenager.
Oh sure, it's slightly more original than Kamakura taking up the visor, but to be replaced by a teenage prodigy? Didn't they just do that with Iron Man?

Isn't every major comic book character being "reimagined" as a teenage female? With what little I pay attention to comics, it seems that way. But, if you're trying to get the attention of teenage boys and the money the spend on video games, that's one way to do it.

The question I have is how many did they print? Did they print fewer copies just in case the new Snake Eyes did not catch on? Did stores reduce their orders and get caught by surprise? Or is this issue really that much of a smash hit that they are actually increasing their sales?

I imagine they printed the same amount as last month and the month before that. I'm glad people are excited for it.

A lot of it would have to do with pre-orders. I guess the best way to determine if its a true sell-out is if retailers want to get more and there aren't any to be had without IDW having to do another printing.
