Commentary:

• Out of nowhere, the Batman: Death of the Family Book and Joker Mask Set shows up on the top of the chart. The most likely reason is that there was some sort of lightning deal in the past 24 hours. It also likely means that some lucky comics fans will have a mask of a serial killer waiting for them under the Christmas tree this year. Happy holidays!
• It's the start of the holiday shopping season, and that means that we're seeing box set collections of classic comic strips move up the chart. The Complete Calvin & Hobbes in paperback jumps to the #2 position, with the hardcover edition returning as well. The latest Complete Peanuts box set leaps up half the chart, and The Complete Far Side is this week's only new entry.
