Commentary: 

  • The Marvel Encyclopedia remains on top this week. Yes, I know it isn't really a comic, but we've been including it on this chart for many years now, so it's staying put.
  • A whole slew of Kindle editions of Avengers and Infinity War/Gauntlet/Etc. titles just rolled off of Kindle Unlimited this week, but are still maintaining high positions on the chart due to their afterglow. So I won't be including any of those on the chart for another week or two until their positions more accurately reflect their sales demand.
  • The top debut this week is the first volume of the manga Witch Hat Atelier. It is joined by new volumes of Sailor MoonThe Legend of Korra, and Avatar; Millar & Coipel's  The Magic Order; a graphic adaptation of Ayn Rand's Anthem; and Mira Jacob's Good Talk.
