Commentary:

  • Topping the chart for the second week in a row is the Kindle edition of the sixth Dork Diaries installment. Looks like it might be sticking around there for a while...
  • All of the debuts this week are Kindle editions, led by (of course) the latest issue of Injustice: Gods Among Us, and followed by a bargain-priced Cable/Deadpool collection, the two Percy Jackson graphic novels, and a bargain priced Cyanide and Happiness.
  • After weeks of bubbling around just under the chart threshold, All Star Superman finally slips up onto the bottom of the chart this week. There are three Superman titles on the chart this week, nearly tying Batman, who has four.
  • Injustice Watch: Four issues show up on the chart this week, up one from last week, with two in the top ten.
  • Dead Watch: Six Walking Dead collections are on the chart this week, up two from last week.
  • Diary Watch: The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Dork Diaries franchises between them take up eighteen of the slots on the chart this week, down three from last week.
  • Kindle Watch: Twenty-four of the chart positions this week are taken up by Kindle editions, up six from last week.
