Commentary:
  • Three Kindle editions top the list this week:The first collection of Injustice, which was on sale earlier in the week; The Best of Archie, which is on sale now; and Snoopy: Cowabunga!, which is one of the choices for a free book when signing up for the Kindle Kids newsletter and is apparently being counted as sales by Amazon.
  • Also debuting this week are the latest issue of Injustice Year Two (on Kindle), the sale-priced first volume of Sin City (also on Kindle), and the first volume of the Attack on Titan spin-off No Regrets.
  • Persepolis has been slowly climbing up the charts over the past few weeks, which is unusual given that it isn't August/September or January. TCU has chosen it as their summer 'Common Read' this year, so maybe a bunch of college students from one university are enough to push it into the top ten?
