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 Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse returns to the top of the chart; the last time it topped the chart was over four months ago (November 10, 2023).
• The top debut is the Kindle edition of the third issue of Fall of the House of X. The top print debut is the print edition of The Crow: Special Edition, boosted by the release of the trailer for the upcoming movie. (The Kindle edition showed up on the chart a few weeks ago on a deep discount). The other print debut this week is the pre-order for Junji Ito's Stitches.
• There's only 49 items on the chart this week because apparently on Friday morning I had difficulty counting.

Commentary:  

• The top debut and new #1 this week is the pre-order for the Kindle edition of next month's issue of Batman.
• It's followed closely by the bargain-priced first volume in Abrams' Dune adaptation. Because movie + bargain = sales!
• The passing of manga creator Akira Toriyama sees his Sand Land—which was released way back in 2003—come in on the chart this week as the top print debut. Also showing up are the previously-charting Akira Toriyama's Manga Theater and Dragon Ball Complete Box Set. 
• Also returning to the chart this week are a couple of Avatar: The Last Airbender omnibuses, no doubt as follow-on from the Netflix live action adaptation.

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:  

• After a one week break, Waverider bumps back to the top of the chart this week (with an asterisk). 
• The top debut is a new Kindle issue of Resurrection of Magneto, leading the typical batch of Kindle single issues this week. Notably, last week's top book—Ultimate Spider-Man #2—doesn't disappear completely this week like most Kindle singles typically do.
• The only print debut this week is The Crow: Special Edition hardcover; somewhat odd in that the Kindle version has been on deep discount for a couple of weeks now. I'm unsure if this is a splashover effect, or from anticipation of the forthcoming movie, or if something else is going on?
  

Top Comic Book Movies of 2023

Here are the grosses of comic book-related movies released in 2023—ranked by domestic (U.S.) box office—according to Box Office Mojo:

1. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse: $381M ($690M)
   
2. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: $358M ($846M)
3. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania: $215M ($476M)
   
4. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom: $124M ($434M)
   
5. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem: $119M ($180M)
   
6. The Flash: $108M ($271M)
   
7. The Marvels: $85M ($206M)
   
8. Blue Beetle: $72M ($131M)
   
9. Shazam! Fury of the Gods: $58M ($134M)
   
10. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – To the Swordsmith Village: $10M ($56M)
    
11. Knights of the Zodiac: $1M ($7M)
12. Shortcomings: $0.7M ($0.7M)
    

This year we put the Worldwide box office in parentheses after the domestic box office, where you can see that Guardians 3 was the top comic book film worldwide, and many (though not all) of the movies did more business overseas than domestically. 

Movies scheduled for 2024 release include: Madame Web (Feb); They Shot the Piano Player (Feb); Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – To the Hashira Training (Feb); Robot Dreams (May); The Crow (Jun); The Garfield Movie (May); Deadpool and Wolverine (Jul); Hellboy: The Crooked Man (Jul); Kraven the Hunter (Aug Dec); Joker: Folie à Deux (Oct); Look Back (Oct); Venom 3 (Nov); Red Sonja (TBD).

Commentary:  

• Ultimate Spider-Man #2 showed up as a pre-order last month, and now it returns with its release this week, and at the top no less. Marvel have to be happy with the performance of their new Ultimate universe so far.
• The top debut this week is a new issue of Rise of the Powers of X; the top print debut is the latest volume of Villains Are Destined to Die. The only other non-single issue debut is a forthcoming volume of Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro on Kindle.

Commentary:  

• Actually Waverider wasn't on the comics chart this week, but it's overall sales rank placed it comfortably ahead of The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse; which means that Amazon decided to reclassify it—probably with the kids graphic novels—even though the Amulet #1-8 Box Set remains on the main comics chart. I'm not going to go and cross check the kids chart and the main chart every week, but when a great injustice like this is done I'll make an exception.
• The top debut this week is the Kindle edition of the new issue of Fall of the House of X, which leads a relatively light batch of Kindle single issues this week.
• Print debuts are led by pre-orders for the two recently announced DC Versus Marvel team-up omnibuses that were announced this week. Two more pre-orders round out this week's debuts: X-Men: The Manga: Remastered and a forthcoming volume of Judd Winick's Hilo series.

• Now that the latest volume of Chainsaw Man has been released, the next forthcoming volume dutifully shows up on the chart as a pre-order, and is the sole print debut this week.

Commentary: 

• Apropos for Groundhog Day, this week's top three comics are the same as last week's, with the final volume of Amulet once again leading the way.
• The top debut this week is the first issue of Dead X-Men, as apparently the Krakoan Saga is moving towards a resolution later this year.
• The top print debut this week is Good Talk: A Memoir in Conversations, Mira Jacob's graphic memoir that was published back in 2020.

Commentary:  

• The year's first big release is here: Waverider, the final volume of Kazu Kibuishi's Amulet series, moves into the top spot with its release this week after many weeks milling about the lower portions of the chart in pre-release. The box set containing the first eight volumes returns to the list, and I suspect that the individual previous volumes are being sequestered in Amazon's kids GN chart and thus don't appear here.
• This week's other big release—a new volume of Solo Leveling—moves up to the #3 spot, and the Kindle edition also debuts this week.
• This week's top new item is the first issue of Resurrection of Magneto. The top print debut is a forthcoming volume of Dragon Ball Super.

Commentary:  

• The first two issues of February's weekly Batman story "The Joker Year One" debut in the top two spots on this week's chart, signaling a strong interest in the event.
• Plenty of Kindle single issue debuts this week, but the only print debut is a new volume of One-Punch Man.
• Just as an aside, it seems odd that no one is publishing a Barbie comic right now?

Commentary:  

• It's a big week for Ultimate Spider-Man—on the week of its release, the first issue on Kindle jumps way up to the top spot, and pre-orders for the second and third issues debut in the top ten. To top things off, the pre-order for the eventual collected edition is this week's top print debut.
• Also debuting this week is the pre-order for a forthcoming volume of Solo Leveling, and several previous volumes return to the top fifty this week. Rounding out this week's print debuts is the latest volume of Komi Can't Communicate.
• Kind of a muted University Effect so far this year: Persepolis moves up the chart, Understanding Comics returns this week, as do a couple of versions of Maus.

Commentary:  

• The Far Side 2024 Off-the-Wall Calendar stays on top of the chart again this week.
• The top debut is the first issue of Fall of The House of X on Kindle. 
• The only print debut is a new volume of Kaiju No. 8.
• Somehow, calling a digital comic an Ashcan seems wrong to me...
