January 1999 Comic Book Sales to Comics Shops
Estimated Comics Preordered by North American Comics Shops
Based on Reports from Diamond Comic Distributors
Covers and issue links on this page lead to current eBay listings. This site may be compensated if you make a purchase.
A light month for new releases brought a wave of "offered again" titles onto the charts at the bottom (including a dozen back issues of Spawn); in accordances with practice at the time, those items were trimmed from the aggregate totals to retain apples-to-apples comparisons, but they have all been restored to the list below. Even with them added, it was a down month to kick off a slow year.
Diamond did release dollar rankings for the Top 250 comics; these will be added at a later date.

This list includes all items on Diamond's Top 300 charts, plus any post-#300 items from its Top Independent Publisher charts.
If you don't see a book, Diamond released no data for it.
Items marked (resolicited) were offered in an earlier month but never shipped; disregard any previously reported figure, as earlier orders were canceled when the books were resolicited.
