R = Item returning to the list after having been off for 1 or more weeks

Commentary:

• We have a new #1! The third volume of Brian K. Vaughan & Fiona Staples' Saga came out this week and made the jump over The Walking Dead. Considering this is while The Walking Dead is showing on television, and Saga is purely a comics property with no tie-in to other media, that is quite the accomplishment. It is currently #43 on the overall Amazon books chart.
• Most new items this week are Kindle editions (Injustice, The Walking Dead, Saga, How About Never...) The only non-Kindle debut is Godzilla: Awakening, a graphic novel prequel to the upcoming Godzilla movie.
• In fact, it's a pretty boring week overall on the Amazon chart, with the usually suspects doing the usual things.
• So I'll point out what's not happening, and that's any appearance by Captain America, who has a new major motion picture coming out next week.
