Over one million copies of ComiXology’s iOS apps have been downloaded since launch, the company announced this week.  Over 5,000 different comics are now available on the ComiXology platform. 

ComiXology’s app and the apps it powers for Marvel and DC were among the top-grossing apps for both iPhone and iPad in 2010 (see “Comics Among Top 2010 Apps”).  ComiXology said that its sales for the Christmas period (December 25-28) were up 1200% over the same period in 2009.

One of the most recent additions to ComiXology’s offerings is the free CBLDF Year in Review mini-comic, which tells the story of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund’s 2010 initiatives--check it out.
