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:
  • Two of Jeffrey Brown's Star Wars books take the top two slots this week, most likely due to advance gift buying for Fathers' Day.  
  • The print and Kindle editions of Fun Home take two of the top five slots this week, no doubt basking in the afterglow of the Fun Home musical's five Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
  • Pretty quiet on the new entries this week, with just the latest Kindle issue of Injustice and a new collection of East of West.
