Acquaman, like sex, sells. After the Nu52's initial boom, DC titles remained at the
top-end of the sales figures for months, and Aquaman consistently broke the Top Ten while Marvel NOW languished below. That means that Aquaman, just under two years ago, outsold
every single Marvel book on the shelves. Of course, Marvel has since closed the gap after the New 52 was broken in a little bit, but Aquaman has remained a consistently high earner in a company dominated by a certain Dark Knight.
