Items with asterisks (*) are pre-order items.

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:

* I have to admit, I'm completely shocked to see The Flash: Rebirth rocket up to the #3 spot. Yes, this morning The Flash is more popular than Twilight!

* It looks like the Invincible Iron Man Omnibus is the beneficiary of Iron Man 2 movie coattails. There are no other Iron Man collections on the charts at all. Kick-Ass remains strong a few weeks out from its movie, though The Losers plummets down thirty places.

* The highest debut belongs to the latest Get Fuzzy Treasury, and the pre-order for the third Complete Bloom County also debuts.
