DC is continuing to sell lots and lots of copies of Geoff Johns and Jim Lee’s Justice League #1, the Aug. 31-released comic that kicked off their “The New 52″ relaunch. The publisher announced today via The Source that the issue is getting a fifth printing (a first for The New 52 and a relatively rare feat in general these days), showing up at comic book shops just a bit after the new year — Jan. 4, 2012.
Justice League #1 netted a reported 186,000 units in first-day Diamond sales, and is now well over the 200k mark in combined sales. The next issue, Justice League #4, is scheduled for release on Dec. 21.

I can’t see anyone buying these except for completists who’ll buy every cover variation. It’s been well over 3 months now, and if anyone who wanted a copy already has, either print or digital.

I do so love how they say initial sales is a reported 186,000 copies but won’t give a clearer combined sales number. I do think DC is padding numbers on all their books with diamond

Another negative comment for no other reason than to be negative.

Working at a comic store this holiday season and we are still selling Justice League #1 every week. We are almost out again and may have to buy this printing!
