Commentary:

* The Wimpy Kid holds the top 3 spots on the comics chart, but still cannot crack #1 on the overall chart; he sits at #2 behind former president Bush. (Yes, this is the same bullet point text as the past two weeks...)

* Wimpy coattails: Dork Diaries books see a boost with the release of the new Wimpy Kid, with volume 2 moving up into the top ten.

* Dead Watch: Fourteen of the top Fifty books are Walking Dead collections.

* The only debut this week is the Garfield desk calendar at #48.

* The bottom of the top fifty list is #2,080 on the overall chart this week.
