Commentary:

• Infinity Gauntlet stays on top again this week, but as the movie fades into memory it also loses its grip on the top of the chart, with affiliated titles starting to drift downward.
• Debuting very strong this week are the pre-orders for first two volumes of Stephen McCranie's Space Boy, both in the top five! Also debuting in the top ten are a RWBY anthology, and Ellen Forney's new book Rock Steady.
• Completing this week's debuts are new volume of One-Punch Man and My Hero Academia; the bargain-priced Kindle edition of Battle Chasers: Collected Edition; and Kindle single issues of Justice League: No Justice, Batman, and Avengers.
