AMAZON BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL 2013: TRIONFA MARBLE SEASON

AMAZON MARBLE SEASON HERNANDEZ – Come tutti gli anni, Amazon ha annunciato la propria Top 100 Books 2013, in categorie che spaziano dalla storia alla letteratura, passando, ovviamente, per comic e graphic novel. 

Se il numero uno della classifica generale è “The goldfinch” di Donna Tartt (“Il cardellino”, in arrivo in Italia a inizio 2014 edito da Rizzoli), il vincitore per la categoria “Comic & Graphic Novels” è Marble Season di Gilber Hernandez. Per quanto riguarda le vendite a guidare la classifica è invece “Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened”, di Allie Brosh.

CLASSIFICA VENDITE – Questa la classifica completa pubblicata su Amazon, ordinata secondo il numero di vendite annuali, dove troviamo anche Saga di Vaughan-Staples, gli X-Men di Bendis, Daredevil di Waid e Batman di Snyder-Capullo.
