ComiXology did a reader survey that revealed some surprising (and sometimes not so surprising) results. Take the jump for a fascinating look at the digital comic book industry.
Stephen Schleicher began his career writing for the Digital Media Online community of sites, including Digital Producer and Creative Mac covering all aspects of the digital content creation industry. He then moved on to consumer technology, and began the Coolness Roundup podcast. A writing fool, Stephen has freelanced for Sci-Fi Channel's Technology Blog, and Gizmodo. Still longing for the good ol' days, Stephen launched Major Spoilers in July 2006, because he is a glutton for punishment.

It’s a ton of money, but not entirely surprising. There are a fair number of series that are upwards of 100 issues. Unless you get them on sale you’re probably spending $200-300 for a single series. New issues at $3-$4 a pop add up fast too.

Still find it hard to believe anyone spent $63,129. I would not have believed that there was $63,000 to spend on Comixology
