Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis' cosmic company-wide crossover event Blackest Night #3 ramped up the battle between the Lantern Corps and the undead Black Lanterns, providing DC Comics with the best-selling comic book title for September 2009, based upon total unit sales to comic book specialty shops, according to Diamond Comic Distributors.
Marvel Comics took the top publisher spot in September, leading in both the Unit Market and Dollar Shares categories, with a 47.58% Unit Market Share and a 40.72% Dollar Share for the month.
Dark Horse Comics' continuing adventures of Joss Whedon's classic character Buffy Summers in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 Volume 5: Predator and Prey gave the Oregon publisher the best-selling graphic novel for the month of September.
Diamond Select Toys' Back to the Future: DeLorean Mark I Car, recreating the iconic time travel machine from the Robert Zemekis film, was the best-selling Toy product. Wizard of the Coast's Magic the Gathering TCG: Zendikar Booster Packs, the latest expansion for their popular trading card game, was September's best-selling Game product to comic book specialty shops.
