Last week we revealed that ComiXology charted as iTunes’ #1 Top Grossing non-game iPad App for 2013 in the U.S. Well this week ComiXology reveals that they also charted as the Top-Grossing iPad Book App for 2013 in France, Belgium, Germany, Spain and the UK!

To show off this fact they have a fantastic available an infographic called, “Where in the World Are Digital Comics Fans?”, showing the penetration of digital comics readers on the comiXology platform across the globe.

Here are some of the fun facts we have learnt from the infographic:

• 51% of ComiXology users are outside the U.S.
• ComiXology is also currently the Top iOS Book App in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, India, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, The Philippines & many more.
• ComiXology’s domination in the 2013 international Top-Grossing iPad Apps lists caps off a year that has seen comiXology’s growth driven by ongoing innovation and international expansion.

A major part of their global expansion was the announcement at last year’s  Festival de la Bande Dessinée d’Angoulême, of the opening of Paris-based comiXology Europe, the company’s first overseas subsidiary, which is spearheading international language content acquisition across Europe. French language navigation, a precursor to full French localization, was added to comiXology’s iOS apps in June of 2013. The Franco-Belgian market is home to a ravenous base of comic book fans, which account for a $700 million annual market – roughly on par with the U.S. market.

As such they have produced the infographic en Francais aussi – tres bien ComiXology!
