Sales for Woke Superman Comics Tank

Apparently, comic book readers don't like woke characters either.

According to Bounding Into Comics, December sales data shows that readers are rejecting DC Comics’ new woke Superman.

DC recently replaced Clark Kent with his son Jonathan Kent, who then falls in love with a man. Jon is also now a climate change activist. Because that's always key in fighting bad guys. And finally, DC changed his motto from “Truth, Justice, and the American Way" to “Truth, Justice, and a Better Tomorrow.” The word "American" is offensive, obviously.

As Trump once said, "Everything woke goes to shit." Just look at Superman's recent comic sales for proof.

The much-hyped first edition of Superman: Son of Kal-El sold just 68,800 issues in July, well below previous estimates. The book ranked as the 17th best-selling comic of the month. 17th! The comic's recently released third issue sold 34,000 copies in September, the 77th best-selling comic of the month. 77th!

Bounding Into Comics compared the sales to previous Superman comics:

So DC killed Superman. YouTuber "Comics by Perch" reports that with Superman now effectively dead, DC is merely a Batman brand with no second attraction. Of DC's current top 50 titles, 48 of them are Batman books.

But will Batman last? Or will Bruce Wayne's pro-abortion, anti-racist, triple-vaxxed, doubled-masked son, who puts he/they pronouns in their bio, replace him?
