Commentary: 

• The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse stays on top of the chart this week as it rises to #10 on the overall Amazon books chart. 
• The top debut this week is the Silver Surfer: Black Treasury Edition, which actually came out a few weeks ago but perhaps the 63% discount from Amazon had something to do with its sudden popularity?
• Also debuting this week are the manga adaptation of Ken Liu's Star Wars: The Legends of Luke Skywalker; Your Life Is a Life of Hope!, a hybrid comics-prose book from Lord Birthday; and a new volume of the Splatoon manga tie-in.
• Note: Even though this is being posted on Saturday morning, rest assured this rankings snapshot was taken on Friday as the timestamp indicates.
