Commentary:
* The movie opens today, but Scott Pilgrim still cannot wrestle the top slot from the upcoming new Wimpy Kid volume. It's pretty close though; WK is at #20 on the overall list, while SP is at #24, 30, 36, & 42.I would not be surprised to see Scott Pilgrim slink back into the top spot over the weekend if the movie is received well.
* I continue to be surprised by the fact that the home video release of Kick-Ass continues to stoke interest in the collection. (Note that it is at #270 on the overall list, meaning there is a huge sales gap between spots 5 & 6 on the list).
* The University Effect is now in full swing, with Persepolis, Maus, Understanding Comics, Fun Home, Watchmen, and The Dark Knight Returns all landing prominently high on the list.
* The highest debut belongs to Fables spin-off Cinderella: From Fabletown with Love, with the newest Buffy volume close behind. Also debuting are the latest volumes of Maximum Ride and The Unwritten.
