🏅#9 on the Hot 10
The Last of Us maintains a strong demand post-season one as evidenced by this week’s sale of a 9.8 for $1,299 that outsold the previous year’s $1,274 average by +2%
An 8.0 sale of $269 outsold the $225 average by +20%
A record-breaking sale in 9.0 for $241 surpassed the previous $200 high from January by +21%
The mini-comic aka “Ashcan” sold in 9.0 for $290, which is +30% over the previous $223 high
Last week, The Last of Us ranked #4 on the list
This the ninth week that this issue has appeared on the Hot 10 in 2023 that is currently 12 weeks into the year
Without attention from the TV series, it is possible the issue will fall off the list in Week 13 but The Walking Dead did not surpass the $1,000 mark in 9.8 until after the second half of season two
