Commentary: 

  • Allie Brosh's Solutions and Other Problems stays in the top spot for a third straight week.
  • The top debut this week is the pre-order for The Adventure Zone: The Crystal Kingdom—both the paperback and hardcover editions hit the chart, even though it is not due out until July 2021. 
  • In a rare top ten debut for Marvel, the pre-order for the She-Hulk by Dan Slott Omnibus comes in at number 9, driven by both the casting announcement for the upcoming television series and the whopping 60% discount that Amazon is offering. 
  • Other debuts this week include the fifth collection of Monstress, two voluems of manga series
    Jujutsu Kaisen, the pre-order for the next volume of My Hero Academia, and Kindle editions of the latest volumes of One-Punch Man and My Hero Academia.
  • Invincible returns to the chart this week, alongside the release of a teaser trailer for the upcoming animated series.
  • Sorry, once again this chart isn't being posted until a week after its compilation.
  • Wash you hands. Wear a face mask when in public, enclosed spaces. Practice sensible social distancing. Read comics.
