Commentary:

* The Wimpy Kid holds the top 3 spots on the comics chart, but still cannot crack #1 on the overall chart; he sits at #2 behind former president Bush. (Yes, this is the same bullet point text as last week!)

* Scott Pilgrim sales stay about the same, though the boxset moves up into the top ten.

* The holiday shopping season is upon us. We're just on the cusp of it this morning, but expect to see some major changes in the chart over the next few weeks.

* The top debut this week is Dr. Horrible and Other Horrible Stories, which actually came out a few weeks ago but is just now making the top fifty. The only other debut is the kindle edition of Dork Diaries.

* The bottom of the chart is rather healthy #1,560 this week on the overall chart.
