R = Item returning to the list after having been off for 1 or more weeks

Commentary:

  • March dominates the chart this week. Not only do all three volumes take up seven clots on the chart (all three in both print & Kindle editions, plus the pre-order for a slipcase collection), but the print editions are currently #2, #6 & #7 on the overall Amazon book chart. That means these are selling in Huge numbers right now.
  • Speaking of Huge, Yuge, the collection of Trump-related Doonesbury cartoons, is still #2 on the chart this week, and #5 on the overall Amazon book chart.
  • Three Rebirth comics make the chart this week, though they're all down in the bottom part of the chart. The new issue of The Walking Dead also charts.
  • The only other new entry this week is the latest volume of Attack on Titan.
