Top 100 Comics And Graphic Novels For April 2012 – The Walking Dead Breaks Into The Top Fifty
Looks like it wasn't just the AVX-fueled Uncanny X-Men and Avengers that knocked Aquaman out of the top ten for the first time in ages. Wolverine And The X-Men and two issues of New Avengers also played their part.
But the bigger news is finally that the monthly market is starting to wake up to what the collection market has known for some time. That The Walking Dead really sells. And sells. And sells. And then each issue goes up on eBay for lots of moolah. It beat Saga #2 to take the 47th place. Of course next week's issue should be the big one, starting a new arc that won't be collected for quite some time…
