Commentary:
* For the second week in a row we have a new #1. After knocking on the door for several weeks, The Walking Dead Compendium finally pushes into the top slot on the comics chart (and is at #35 on the overall chart).
* Dead Watch: In fact, this is as much domination as we've ever seen one franchise have on the chart, with four collections in the top ten and twenty-two in the top fifty. (If I'm counting correctly, there are only twenty-four Walking Dead collections extant.)
* The Walking Dead moving to #1 wasn't a big surprise, but bursting onto the chart for the first time at #2 is the A Game of Thrones comic adaptation (#54 on the overall chart). While WD's appeal will likely lessen after this weekend's season finale, AGoT is just now ramping up with its second season debuting on April 1.
* Other debuts this week are Avengers: The Children's Crusade, the sixteenth Walking Dead collection, and The United States Constitution.
