This chart of the ICv2 "Superhero/Genre Franchises" reflects sales in all channels for Fall 2015.  The "Top 10" chart is based on data from both the comic store and book channels, aggregated by character or property to determine the Top Franchises in the comics business.  Because it looks at both channels for graphic novels, which target a broad range of consumers across demographic groups, and aggregates info by property, the ICv2 Top 10 Graphic Novel Franchise charts give the best picture of the properties that are driving sales in the U.S.
