Commentary: 

• The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, stays on top of the chart again this week.
• The top debut this week is a new Avatar: The Last Airbender GN: Toph Beifong's Metalbending Academy. 
• Also debuting this week is David Walker & Marcus Kwame Anderson's The Black Panther Party: A Graphic Novel History.
• Two massive manga box sets make their debut on the chart this week:  Ouran High School Host Club Box Set (18 vols.) and One Piece Box Set: East Blue and Baroque Works (23 vols.). Both were originally released several years ago, but for some reason manga box sets are suddenly in vogue on the Amazon comics chart. (Yes Amazon's discount is obviously attractive for such high ticket items, but why all of a sudden are years-old sets charting?)
• We round out our debuts this week with more manga volumes: the next Spy x Family and the debut volumes of Solo Leveling and Pokémon Adventures Collector's Edition.
• A whopping thirty-five of the top fifty this week are manga titles! That might be a record.
• Wash your hands. Wear a face mask when in public, enclosed spaces. Practice sensible social distancing. Get a vaccine when it is available for you. Read comics!
