The Devestator, a comedy-magazine publisher recently held an anonymous survey among 46 artists, small-press publishers and indie exhibitors. It asked about gross sales at comic conventions.

The good: This is a very interesting look at numbers that most exhibitors are typically reticent to share.

Nevertheless, it’s worth a look — and it’s definitely something I’d like to discuss here.
