Commentary:

  • Fun Home swaps places with Persepolis, this week to take the number one spot, no doubt with sales spurred on by the Duke controversy.
  • The top debut this week is the Kindle edition of the Superman: Doomed collection, with digital readers no doubt finding its $15 price tag more palatable than the $50 hardcover.
  • Also debuting this week are a new edition of Nextwave, the latest issue of Injustice, and a new volume of Attack on Titan.
