Commentary:

• Still on top is Hyperbole and the Half, which slips a bit more on the overall books chart to #69. Persepolis, Fun Home, Maus, Watchmen, etc. continue to chart strong as students buy their required reading for the semester.
• The top debut this week is the first volume of Snowpiercer, a French BD that has apparently been made into a South Korean action thriller film starring Capt. America himself Chris Evans. Hello global economy!
• Also debuting this week are the latest Attack on Titan volume, the Kindle edition of The Sworn Sword, the Kindle version of the latest issue of The Walking Dead, and the bargain-priced Kindle edition of the first Batman Chronicles volume.
