DC's Rebirth has proved the dominant event over Marvel's Civil War II, with the distinguished competition taking 8 of the top 10 spots on the July 2016 comics sales charts.
DC's revamp of the Justice League took the top 2 spots for the month, while Marvel's Civil War II could only manage placings in 4th and 7th.
And despite publishing just 94 titles compared to Marvel's 130, including 63 versus 97 comic books, DC was the month's top seller in both market share categories.
On the Graphic Novel front, Image's Monstress Volume 1 trade led the way, while Marvel's highest placing trade was the Star Wars Obi-Wan & Anakin trade in 4th.
