The second Archive from 2013 is another unexpected surprise, the second volume in the Silver Age series Metal Men. It's been 80 months (6.67 years) since the last volume, meaning something from the Top 20 finally moves to the bottom of the list. And it's a super-sized as well covering issues 6-20.

And a reminder that Superman: Action Comics Volume 6 remains off the list as there is no updated release data at this time. (Amazon listed a March 2013 release, which seems unlikely now as Metal Men Volume 2 has taken that slot.)

CENTURY CLUB
* Hawkman (Silver Age) officially joins the Century Club giving us 12 titles in extreme waiting. Next in line is Brave And Bold Team Ups at 96 months.

AVERAGE WAIT TIME
* The average wait for a DC Archive follow-up volume decreases slightly to 64.19 months, down from 65.37 months.
* For the curious, 24 volumes have a greater waiting time than the average and 16 volumes are below the average.

FEARLESS PREDICTION
* I'm going to guess that Silver Age Hawkman Archives Volume 3 will narrowly avoid joining the Century Club and be our April 2013 volume.
