An ICv2 Release. Kids graphic novels continue to be the fastest growing part of the comics market, with kids titles now the best-selling graphic novels in the U.S. The most extreme example of this trend is Dog Man; Scholastic printed five million copies of the most recent volume (see "Next ‘Dog Man’ Volume Gets Record Graphic Novel Print Run").
