Guantelete del Infinito
"The Infinity Gauntlet" was an instant success and became one of the most influential storylines in comics from the 1990s. Both of the nationwide comic distributors at the time (Diamond Distribution and Capital City Distribution) reported each issue was one of their top ten sellers for the month of its release. When Capital City released their top 100 best selling single issues of 1991, "Infinity Gauntlet" issues fell between the 42nd and 64th positions. Aside from the first issue of "The Punisher War Zone", all of the higher ranked entries were issues of "", "Robin II: The Joker's Wild!", or the X-Men franchise. "Wizard", a comic magazine known for embracing speculation in the comic market, listed "The Infinity Gauntlet" #1 as the ninth "Hottest Book" in September 1991, and two lead-in issues of "Silver Surfer" were ranked sixth and tenth. The first issue's resale value rose above its $2.50 cover price in the back issue market, plateauing around $9 or $10 in late 1992.
