Commentary:

• The top of the chart is pretty much the same as last week, with slots #1-3 exactly the same and #4 & #5 swapping places.
• The top debut this week is the new digital issue of Injustice, followed by Gemma Correll's The Worrier's Guide to Life, the first collection of the new Thor, and Matthew Diffee's cartoon collection Hand Drawn Jokes for Smart Attractive People.
• Marvel's Civil War and Infinity Gauntlet remain strong, proving perhaps that anticipation of upcoming Marvel movies drive trade sales more than the release of those movies.
