Modern Comics Heating Up (Those With Potential Too) (Part 1)

Google trends is a great tool to gauge awareness and reach.

The High Republic is the barely visible blue line on the bottom of the chart. The red line is Mando.

Mando maintains an approximate 35 to 1 ratio compared to the High Republic when in-between TV seasons and a 100 to 1 ratio when new shows are introduced.

Essentially it demonstrates the potential growth that High Republic can possibly achieve if it were to get a show on Disney plus.

Meaning that a High Republic show could possibly expand the collector base for the High Republic comics by 35-100 times the size it is now.

It’s interesting to stack Boba Fett up against this. What this says to me is that the show would have to be good.

Nice analysis and perspective. What’s the website used here? Google trends? i think I am going to sell some issues to make my money back and keep the rest.

Try removing the “?” on “marvel what if” for a better result.

Here’s a great example of what we all recently witnessed with Krrsantan comics.

Google Analytics for the forums here also states that 45% of our viewers to the forums are female while 55% are male. I’m not buying it… I know Alana is female but not sure about most of the rest of our regulars, pretty sure most of you all are dudes…
