Matt,
I’m always curious how well the Blood Bowl comics and novels sell. Given that GW support it only as part of their Specialist Games range I wouldn’t imagine it’s getting a lot of new fans. Speaking as someone who is working on opening my own games and comic shop I know that as an Independent Stockist I can only stock the basic box set for Blood Bowl itself.
Anything you can share?
Cheers,
David
Hi David:
Since Blood Bowl belongs to GW, I’m not at liberty to reveal sales numbers on the novels. In the case of the comics, I don’t even have any data with which to part. The books have sold well enough that GW asked me to write four of them, so that’s a good sign. With the video game coming out sometime soon, that should raise the profile of the game a bit more and hopefully pump sales of everything else related to it.
I hope that helps!
