Yes and no. Depends on the store. At Wal-Mart stores here, DC has more stuff on the pegs, while MU sells through much better (except poor IM2). WM has sooo much GL stuff that is not selling. Also, the 6" (or whatever) aren't selling too well either, not to mention the multi-fig sets. But at Target, Marvel rules with far, far more pegs dedicated to their lines. At TRU, there is more Marvel in total due to the variety Marvel figures (including the Avengers $20 figs as well as the statues that spell "Avengers"). As a whole, DC doesn't seem to sell very well - except perhaps the 4" line that seems to sell pretty well. I collected a few of the Infinite Crisis figures but it was difficult to impossible to find figures I wanted at retail like the Joker, and most that I was looking for were only in mult-packs that I only bought when they were at discount stores.
