Is Fell a success?

It must be selling well if it's going back to print on every issue multiple times. But how well is it selling? Is it doing good enough that it's profitable for the creators to do it for a long time? I sure hope so 'cause this book is bananas!

I think it is. It's on its fourth printing, right?

I think with every issue selling out, #1 on it's 4th printing and 5 eisner noms, it should be pretty safe. I hope they keep it up; the book is great.

Each printing is only 40 copies so. Success is in the eye of the beholders. Or something.

I don't think I've seen any of the issue break the top 100 list, but I don't think a book like this has to in order to be deemed "successful" enough to not get cancelled. I imagine that if by "successful" you mean this is going to keep coming out for a while, then yea, it is.

I just don't see how people can pass this up for only $2. What the hell else are they buying?

I believe the first issue had pre-orders around 20K if I remember correctly. Comicon.com used to do sales analysis and really show the numbers over the printings, but I haven't seen them do it in a while. You could however go through the monthly 300 and see where it ranks each month, get the numbers, etc. to see how many it's sold.
