Today I’m perusing the Top 300 Comics for March 2003. As always, the top 10 comics are Marvel, mostly X-Men…but oddly enough, Batman is outselling them all at #1 with 23,000 more copies. And JLA, even today’s team written by Joe Kelly, is doing quite well at #11. Still…it’s shocking to see the comics considered…

Kids WB carries New Astro Boy

Superfriends music
