    Top 100 Graphic Novels and Trade Paperbacks for March 2008

    Stephen SchleicherBy Stephen SchleicherApril 23, 20086 Mins Read

    piechart.jpgDiamond Comic Distributors has sent Major Spoilers the rundown of the top 100 trades and graphic novels that shipped in March 2008.

    Not surprisingly DC’s Batman Killing Joke Special Edition Hardcover took the number one spot with its new coloring (which I like quite a bit). Manga favorite Naruto came in at the number three position, with Marvel making its first appearance at #6 with Spider-Man One More Day Premiere Hardcover. DC came out on top trade wise goes taking the number one and number two spots on the list and also garnering a third position in the top 5 with DMZ.
