They're not. Folks, quit using comicchron. That's dealer to vendor. Not sales. Now, real sales numbers are hard to come by, but Marvel over ships many titles that don't sell (Legacy anyone?) There's plenty of videos about Marvel's habit of shipping more than they can sell. Best we can do is survey comic shop owners and see what they're selling. A channel called "I love comics" does this and DC is consistently out-selling Marvel. (recently anyhow, I doubt it's been that way historically) Granted, it's not real scientific and the sample size he uses is small (Usually about 30 or so shops in major markets) but it's the best we can do right now.
