Amazon Top 50 - August 29, 2025





The cover of the "Dog Man: Big Jim Believes" graphic novel features the titular superhero, Dog Man, in a heroic flight pose. He soars through a vibrant blue sky, his red cape billowing dramatically behind him, complemented by a pair of white wings. Dog Man sports his signature red suit, complete with a yellow utility belt and matching red boots.  Accompanying him in the air is a large, purple, cat-like character. This character, distinguished by glasses and a cupcake emblem on its chest, also wears a similar red outfit, mirroring Dog Man's heroic attire.  Below them, perched on a city building, a small, pink cat character gazes upwards at the flying duo. The background is a dynamic scene of orange explosions against the bright blue sky, with city buildings visible below, suggesting an ongoing adventure.  The book's title, "DOG MAN," is emblazoned prominently in bold, white capital letters, with the subtitle "Big Jim Believes" also clearly displayed. The author's name, "Dav Pilkey," is visible at the bottom of the cover.

Items with dollar signs ($) were part of a deeply discounted Kindle sale this week
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 preorder for the next volume in the best-selling Dog Man series, Big Jim Believes, moves into the top spot this week. We should expect to see it being in the top spot for many weeks to come (though it may occasionally be dethroned).
  • The top debut this week is the Kindle edition of the latest issue of Superman, which is directly tied into the current DC mega narrative. The top (and only) print debut is a new volume of the manga series Blue Lock.
