Buffy : Season 8

"Buffy : Season 8" Comic Book is still the best selling "indie" comic

Saturday 6 March 2010, by Webmaster

Buffy is, again, the top selling indie book this month. Marvel and DC appear to have had quite a small month, as a total of thirty books (21 of them “indie”) made the chart this month with sales that would have seen them below #300 last month.

As with last month, I’ve listed every “indie” title in the top 200, and a selection of those appearing lower on the charts.

Thanks to icv2.com and Milton Griepp for permission to use these numbers, which can be found here.
