Thanks to CBR and Newsarama for their articles on the first results out on September sales from Diamond Comics Distributors, and on the DC Executives' responses to those numbers.
AvX #11 was tops for the month, but the next 9 spots all belonged to DC's Zero Month issues. DC won the month on both unit sales and dollar shares.
While the list doesn't go beyond #10 on top sales at this point, the good news at least appears to go beyond that for DC. In the Newsarama interview, there is mention that Aquaman #0 beat out all the regular monthlies for Marvel - that likely means Flash is even higher on that list.
Here are the links for your review:
