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:

* Cabin Fever slides down a bit more to #28 on the overall list, and still #1 on the comics list.

* Only two debuts this week, down near the bottom of the list: the latest Avatar graphic novel, and Larry Gonick's latest Cartoon Guide.

* Dead Watch: Just three Walking Dead collections this week.

* Tintin Watch: Seven Tintin collections on the chart this week. Looks like for the time being Tintin is the new Walking Dead. (I"m pretty sure this is the only place where you'll see that statement!)
