Commentary:

• After being shut out of new titles last week, this week shows seven title making their debut on the top fifty chart, led by Hope Larson's adaptation of A Wrinkle in Time at #11. Other debuts are Mark Siegel's Sailor Twain; the latest collection of American Vampire; the collection of Marvel's event comic Avengers vs. X-Men; a box set of Warren Ellis's Freakangels; a hardcover Criminal collection; and the latest volume of Berserk.
• Dead Watch: Eight Walking Dead collections on the chart this week, same as last week.
