Items with asterisks (*) are pre-order items.

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:

* The Walking Dead and Dork Diaries switch positions at the top of the list. I expect me may see this dance for a while...

* Chester Brown's Paying For It was MIA on the chart last week, but this week returns all the way up at #5. It's been quite a yo-yo ride on the chart for this particular title.

* The top debut this week is Blood Work, a graphic novel set in Kim Harrison's popular Hollows series of supernatural novels. Also debuting is The Griff, the first graphic novel by popular humor author Christopher Moore; a Y the Last Man hardcover; and a bunch of manga volumes.

* Speaking of, there are seven different manga volumes on the chart this week, which historically (well, since I've been keeping track...) is a relatively high number.
