Commentary:

• The three Walking Dead Compendia take the top three slots on the chart this week. Five other Walking Dead books also make the chart this week.
• One of those is the Kindle edition of The Walking Dead #152, a rare occurence of a digital edition of a single print issue appearing in the top fifty.
• Also debuting this week are a new digital-first issue of Injustice, a collection of Snoopy-related Peanuts strips, and the low-priced Batman vs. Superman: The Greatest Battles.
• Many of the Saga collections take an oddly large dip on the chart this week. Likely just temporary, but still strange.
• Is there a manga resurgence going on? Not long ago it was a rare occurrence to see more than one or two manga volumes in the top fifty; this week there are six.
