Commentary:
- After a few weeks of hovering near the top of the chart, Persepolis finally slides up into the top spot this week.
- Not sure what caused the Death Note Box Set to suddenly show up in the second position, but I suspect there was some kind of sale as it is currently sold out from Amazon.
- There are a lot of debuts this week: in addition to the aforementioned Death Note set, there's the new volume of Tokyo Ghoul; a couple of DC Rebirth collections: Teen Titans & Nightwing; a few pre-orders: The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up, Black Panther: World of Wakanda, Monstress Volume 2: The Blood, and The Walking Dead: Here's Negan; and a couple of Kindle single issues: Injustice 2 and Batman.
- Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet plummets down 32 spots this week, but that's because Amazon is currently sold out. Quick, Marvel, print more and ship them to Amazon's warehouses; you're losing sales!
