Yes, of course. The 21K is (FOC)....
Does this also include the pre-orders of SW and XO?
Have we been told a actual number of what the pre-orders have done?

I'm not sure, but they gotta be in there somewhere. Pre-order editions are still ordered through Diamond, but they do have a different order code....

This is hard to believe. This book got a lot of hype. Even my little stores in Omaha knew about it and promoted it fairly well. I just can't believe it didn't come anywhere close to X-O #1, let alone break the top 50.

Dinesh confirmed on twitter that 10-20% of Secret Weapons 36 k were pre orders.
Wonder what the XO #4 pre orders were as that was part of the issues 4-9 set? 1-3 were around 30k from memory.

I can believe it, unfortunately. There are so many readers and collectors that are just hooked on the D.C. and Marvel smack that they can't stop and are unwilling to try anything new. They have to buy so much just to get one full story, that they don't have money for another book.

Something else I was thinking. Do you guys feel the title 'secret weapons' being a team book and not a new solo comic with a hero's name as the title, like 'X-O #1' or 'Bloodshot 1' effected the sales positive or negative?

Yup. I ordered 2 so it's safe to say they sold at least 21,940. :lol:
