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:

* The Walking Dead Compendium slips a few slots to #38 on the overall chart, but that's still good enough to keep it atop the comics chart.

* Dead Watch: Twenty-five Walking Dead collections on the chart this week, the same as last week. The only thing interesting in WD news is that for the first time a Kindle edition outsold some of the print editions.

* Just two debuts this week, both near the bottom of the chart: A Pearls Before Swine collection; and Jorge Aguirre & Rafael Rosado's Giants Beware!

* We're less than a month out from the release of The Avengers movie, and so far there's little evidence of any interest in Avengers comics on the chart...

Amazon's top 50 are always a mix of what's hot in the non-big 2 publishers and Dark Knight Returns/Killing Joke/Watchmen.
