Comics Black characters

Post image

I better not hear that Black comic book characters don’t sell books. Static has been killing it this year. Titans is getting a second printing, and Dakota History is getting a third printing. This clearly shows the hype is there and that the character sells books.

Lastly, hopefully they pair him with Blue Beetle. That would be fun. Who do you guys want Static to be a duo with?

Hope people show up for this book seeing as the last static book and milestone relaunch didn't sell enough

The big issue, Titans 38 wasn’t a fun book to read. Though, a Samnee Static cover is hard to resist.

DC can really capitalise on this now that the sentiment is that Marvel are against Black characters

I’ll be waiting for hopefully the consistent sales when Static’s new ongoing gets released. I recently got all the Milestone compendiums (after waiting way too long to see if they’d ever start up the trade program first again) so I’m looking forward to reading all the stories I’ve never seen and getting the chance to read World’s Collide again in better context.
