N = New listing appearing on list for first time
R = Item returning to the list after having been off for 1 or more weeks
Commentary:
* Twilight slips back this week, not only behind the Wimpy Kid volumes, but also Kick-Ass as well.
* Also losing some steam this week are the Scott Pilgrim volumes. Presumably the high from the trailer has worn off, but while they will drop for a while I suspect that a new trailer will perk them back up again, and that we'll see increasing interest as the film approaches in August.
* The highest debut belongs to a new volume of Yotsuba&!, which is also the only manga on the list this week.
* Peeking in down near the bottom of the list is a preorder for The Exile, a new graphic novel based on an apparently very popular series of historical time-travel fantasy romances by Diana Gabaldon. This one could be a sleeper hit...
