Commentary: 

• The pre-order for Strange Planet remains on top of the Amazon comics chart this week. (See this previous column for the reason why Raina Telgemeier's Guts—the #5 best-selling book in the country—isn't on the Amazon comics chart at all!)
• The #2 book this week is the finally-released 21st installment of the popular manga My Hero Academia. Several other volumes also join it on the chart this week, including pre-orders for vols. 22 & 23, as well as the sixth volume of spin-off series My Hero Academia: Vigilantes.
• The top debuting comic this week is the final issue of House of X on the Kindle. It's joined by a plethora of other new titles, such as the Kindle edition of Marvels: The Remastered Edition; a new volume of Brandon Sanderson's White Sand; a new volume of manga series The Promised Neverland; the final Paper Girls collection; the Heroes in Crisis collection; DCeased #5 on the Kindle; and pre-orders for a Fowl Language collection, The Unicorn Whisperer, and new volumes of manga series Komi Can't Communicate and Berserk.
