The final rankings for
all comics and
trade paperbacks during the year appear below. Diamond
reported these issues without indexes allowing actual sales estimates
to be calculated. You can find the first-month sales for these issues
in the monthly
charts;
click one of the months above or use the search tool at the top of the
page to find the specific issue. But note that those monthly numbers do
not include reorders for the entire year; the rankings below do take
the entire year's sales into account.
