Commentary:

• We have a new number one! Debuting in the #1 slot this week is Shotaro Ishinomori's The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, a color manga based on the classic Nintendo game. It's in pre-order and doesn't come out until early May, but it rocketed to the top of the comics chart this week and is #33 on the overall book chart.
• There are a large number of debuts in the top ten this week; four, in fact. Besides the Zelda manga, there's Scott McCloud's The Sculptor; the third Superman: Earth One OGN; and the second issue of Marvel's Star Wars—not the Kindle version but the physical comic, being sold only through third-party sellers.
• Plenty of reshuffling in the rest of the chart, but nothing really in the way of surprises.
