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:

* A new Wimpy Kid item debuts at #2 on the list (and #160 overall). Expect to see it in the top 5 for a long time (or until Amazon decides to reclassify it, as it is sometimes wont to do...). Volume 5 remains at the top of the comics list and is #69 overall.

* The only other debut this week is the latest Invincible Iron Man collection.

* A bit of a resurgence for individual Scott Pilgrim volumes this week. A new trend, or just one of those things?

* I hadn't even noticed last week that there had been no Buffy titles in the top 50. Not to worry, as three volume make their way back on this week.

* Dead Watch: Nine Walking Dead collected volumes make the list this week. Book 1, at #50 on the comics charts, is #2,836 overall.
