Commentary:

• This week's new #1 is Snoopy: Cowabunga!, a collection of Peanuts strips on the Kindle. Last week when it debuted at #3 I speculated that maybe there had been a sale earlier in he week, but here it is one week later and the regular-priced collection tops the charts. Why this particular collection right now? Who knows...
• The top debut this week is the pre-order for Michael Inman's next Oatmeal book: The Terrible and Wonderful Reasons Why I Run Long Distances. It's not due out until the end of September, but the fact that it debuts high the week it is available for pre-order shouldn't come as a surprise.
• Also debuting this week are Guardians of the Galaxy/All-New X-Men: The Trial of Jean Grey, combining two high-profile Marvel properties with movies this summer; and the first collection of Rick Remender & Matteo Scalera's Black Science.
