Hundreds of Parisians formed long lines at news outlets across the city as the latest edition of Charlie Hebdo's magazine went on sale in France on Wednesday.
Charlie Hebdo's defiant new issue sold out before dawn around Paris, with scuffles at kiosks over dwindling copies of the paper which has the Prophet Muhammad on its front page.
The sixty copies received by kiosk vendor Tayeb Bekhrad were gone minutes after being delivered at 06:00 local time (0500 GMT).
Some newsstand operators said they expected more copies to arrive on Thursday.
Three million copies of Charlie Hebdo were being delivered across France a week to the day after the assault by two masked gunmen which killed 12 people, including many of the magazine's editorial staff and two police officers.
It was the beginning of three days of terror which saw 17 people killed before the three Islamic extremist attackers were gunned down by security forces.
Charlie Hebdo had faced repeated threats and a firebombing for depictions of the Prophet Muhammad, and its editor and his police bodyguard were the first to die.
The latest issue of Charlie Hebdo has maintained the intentionally offensive tone that made the newspaper famous in France, although global news organisations have differed in their decisions to run images of the cover.
Solidarity for Charlie Hebdo, although not uniform, was widespread in France and abroad.
