N = New listing appearing on list for first time
R = Item returning to the list after having been off for 1 or more weeks

Commentary:
  • The sixth Saga collection remains on top for the third week. People like the Saga!
  • Coming on strong into second place is Yuge, a collection of Trump-related Doonesbury strips. The Kindle edition also debuts in the middle of the chart.
  • No fear of a DC Rebirth flame-out, as the Kindle edition of Justice League Rebirth debuts in the top ten, and the second issues of Batman and Superman make the chart as well.
  • The top debut this week is Robin Ha's Cook Korean! I'd expect to see more comic-style cookbooks showing up in a few months...
  • The first OGN for DC Super Hero Girls debuts. This will likely end up outselling most of the New 52 collections, but nearly all of those sales will be in non-comic shop channels (bookstores, online, school book fairs...) so you won't hear much about it in the comics press
