September
In the following example:
| Rank | Title | Sales | % Change |
| 14 | Batman #600 | 54,100 | +12.7 |
Rank -- stands for the comic's position on the Top 300 list for that month.
Title -- lists the name of the comic and its issue number.
Sales -- illustrates the estimated number of issues sold.
% Change -- specifies as a percentage whether the book has sold more or less copies since the preceding issue.
So, Batman #600 would have sold approximately 54,100 copies, ranked 14th for most comics sold that month, and had an estimated sales increase of 12.7% from the previous month's issue of Batman.
The data listed in the links below is based on estimated sales figures from Diamond Comic Distributors. It does not take into account newsstand sales, reorders, subscriptions, sales outside North America, or sales from distributors other than Diamond.
For the months up to and including September 1996, the comics listed therein have ranks that do not take into account Marvel Comics sales figures. Up until that point, Marvel's books were not distributed by Diamond, which is why their ranks did not affect the data.
Months for which there are no links provided indicate that there was no data available for the given period.
This data would not have been possible without the invaluable efforts of Michael Burns, Carl Henderson, Matthew High, and ICV2.com.
