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 pre-order for the sixth Wimpy Kid book is currently #3 on the overall Amazon chart, so it quite safely holds on to its #1 position on the comics chart. The #2 book, the first Sailor Moon re-issue, is #87 on the overall chart.

* There are no new books on the chart this week; everything was either on the chart last week or appeared at least once in the previous week.

* Not only am I surprised to see Detective Comics #1, available only from 3rd-party sellers, still onthe list and climbing, it seems strange that none of the other New 52 titles are making a similar showing.
