Commentary:
  • Moving into the top spot this week is LEWSER!, the latest Doonesbury collection.
  • The passing of Representative and civil rights activist John Lewis sees his graphic novel trilogy March move into the top ten, all three volumes plus the slipcase collection. A sad occasion, but good that people are seeking to learn more about his legacy.
  • The top debut this week is The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords -Legendary Edition-; it actually came out three years ago but is just now hitting the best-seller chart, so ???
  • Also debuting this week are The Last Kids on Earth and the Cosmic Beyond (a hybrid prose/comics book for kids); a new volume of Beastars; Adrian Tomine's new comics memoir The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Cartoonist; and for some reason the Kindle edition of DC Comics/Dark Horse: Batman vs. Predator (Maybe because Dark Horse is losing the Predator license to Marvel at the end of the year, and after that there's very little chance these crossovers will be available...)
  • Wash you hands. Wear a face mask when in public, enclosed spaces. Practice sensible social distancing. Read comics.
