Fantagraphics: Castle Waiting HC Hits 7K

According to this fairly nice albeit scattered survey-style article about female cartoonists and the female audience for comics by the Republican-American in Waterbury, Connecticut, Fantagraphics has sold 7000 copies of Linda Medley's massive Castle Waiting hardcover, making her the top-selling female cartoonist in the company's history. I note this because you rarely get sales figures of this type. FBI's publicity guru Eric Reynolds rightfully says that in a different world the company might be able to sell many thousands more.
