BOX OFFICE TOP TEN - JULY 2020 - Comic Book and Movie Reviews

I know it’s been a long time since I posted my last article focused on the box office top ten, but in my defense, both the film and comic book industries have taken a dramatic dip during lockdown, largely due to the numerous restrictions placed upon public gatherings, distribution, as well as a variety of other issues occurring amidst this current COVID crisis (such as the sudden split between DC Comics and Diamond Distributors, for instance). Within recent months, though, things have started to change, change for the better, and now I can finally present you with another box office top ten. Primarily, for the month of July, 2020. Please enjoy.
