We don’t normally cover sales on the Artist’s Edition Index, but perhaps that should change. Things From Another World is having a crazy sale on some IDW volumes that shouldn’t be missed. Click on the price linked to get the deal.

Diamond released their August 2018 sales numbers over the weekend and Comichron has extrapolated those and determined actual unit sales. These numbers are for Diamond’s direct sales in North America only and don’t include Diamond UK or the bookstore market. It’s worth reading the additional information under the sales charts.
For the purposes of the AE Index, where we record initial sales month, four Artist Edition style books were published in August 2018, and two made the sales chart.

In March 2017 I took a look at announced or solicited AE format books that had yet to materialize in AE MIA: Missing After Announcing. Thankfully two from last year’s list have seen publication, so there is hope! If a book is still actively scheduled through Diamond, such as Dynamite’s Best Of Vampirella Art Edition, it won’t be part of this list. As well, if a book hasn’t had any mention since the last MIA it won’t appear here, such as Carl Barks Uncle Scrooge Artifact Edition.
