Thank you for linking to the Matt Blind information. I really like looking at sales figures to get a sense of how my favourite publishers are doing. It makes for an interesting comparison to the Tilting at Windmills summary for 2010 (http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=30752). Seems like manga on a whole had another difficult year in 2010.
