Commentary: 

• While Marvel may be struggling to turn interest in Avengers: Endgame into comic sales (placing only two books, Infinity Gauntlet & Infinity War  on the chart this week), DK is able to capitalize with the new edition of their Marvel Encyclopedia moving into the top spot.
• (Though I will note that the Amazon comics chart is full of Kindle editions of various Avengers and Thanos collections—those are all part of Amazon's Kindle Unlimited service and thus are removed from these rankings, where we seek to track sales and not items read through subscription services.)
• The top debut this week is the Kindle edition of the penultimate issue of Heroes in Crisis. Also debuting are new volumes of One-Punch Man, American Gods, and Gideon Falls.
