N = New listing appearing on list for first time

Commentary:

• No big Marvel Kindle sale this week, which means that things are settling back to normal on the chart. 
• Coming in at #1 this week is Action Comics: 80 Years of Superman Deluxe Edition, with the Kindle edition also making an appearance later on as well.
• Debuts this week are led by two Kindle single issues: the latest issue of Critical Role, and the 1000th issue of Action Comics. New issues of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Fence also debut, and last week's issue of Darth Vader hangs around for another go. Kindle editions of the latest volumes of One-Punch Man and That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime also debut.
• Debuting in print this week are Attack on Titan 24 and The Bridge, plus pre-orders for Saga Volume 9 and a Darth Vader collection.
• Neil Gaiman showed up on The Big Bang Theory last night and plugged Marvel 1602, which is why the print and Kindle editions both show up on the Amazon chart this morning.

Items with dollar signs ($) were part of a deeply discounted Kindle sale this week
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:

• There were effectively two Marvel 99¢ Kindle sales this week: The first, mid-week, featured hundreds of recent collections, while the second at the end of the week was only for those collections and OGNs released this week. 
• Most of this week's new items are those Marvel sale items, but also new are the Kindle edition of the new My Hero Academia volume, and a new issue of The Walking Dead.
• Marvel claimed at the retailer summit yesterday that it is Amazon setting these bargain prices, and not Marvel, and the Amazon is losing money on each sold. Selling digital items at a loss to encourage format adaptation is something that Amazon has done in the past, but why are they only doing this with Marvel titles?
