Missed It: John Jackson Miller Takes Stab At Overall Market Size

Numbers cruncher John Jackson Miller took a stab at the overall size of the comics market here; the walking through of the various estimates is as interesting as the final result. It also goes to show you just how much of this stuff is shrouded in mystery both by choice and by a lack of reliable tools.

In a slightly less ambitious article, but the kind of thing the writer does routinely and with skill, Miller takes a gander at Ghost Rider sales, poking a stick at the question why that particular character -- not a big hit right out of the gate -- has seen two big-budget movies while other characters with more storied pedigrees have yet to get that treatment. It was the '90s, apparently.
