Commentary: 

• The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, stays on top of the chart again this week.
• This week's top debut is Barry Windsor-Smith's Monsters. It is joined by Alison Bechdel's new graphic memoir The Secret to Superhuman Strength; the first volume of manga series Dai Dark and the second volume of Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro; and the print editions of the second and third Invincible Compendia.
• Only thirty-six manga volumes on the top fifty chart this week,  the fewest in several weeks.
• It was confirmed this week that the Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point collection will include the game codes from the individual issues, so expect to see it a best-seller for quite some time (even as it isn't to be released until September).
• 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!

Commentary: 

• The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, stays on top of the chart again this week.
• This week's top (and only) debut is the Kindle edition of Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point #1—which does not come with a game code so perhaps there are some people who are looking to get the comic in order to read it?
• The biggest chart mystery of the week: What caused Lynda Barry's What It Is—originally published in 2008—to suddenly appear in the top ten?
• Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba—The Movie was #2 at the box office this past weekend, and unlike some other comics book movies of the past it is able to turn box office success into comic success, with thirteen volumes of the manga on the top fifty chart this week.
• In all forty of the top fifty spots on the chart are taken by manga volumes, which is actually down a bit from last week's record-tying forty-two.
• 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!

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 the Kindle edition of the first
  Invincible Compendium. It is joined on the chart by the debuts of the Kindle editions of the second and third Compendia, as well as the return of the print edition of the first Compendium. No doubt this interest in Invincible comics is driven by the debut last week of the Invincible animated series on Amazon Prime.
• Also debuting this week are pre-orders for the Kindle editions of a couple of forthcoming Star Wars comics (Star Wars: The High Republic #6 & Star Wars: Darth Vader #13); new or forthcoming volumes of the manga series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro, and The Quintessential Quintuplets; an Attack on Titan Season 2 Manga Box Set; and the Godzilla vs. Kong prequel comic Godzilla: Dominion.
• Despite the Invincible infusion on the chart, this week sees a slight increase in the number of manga titles, back up to forty (from thirty-nine last week).
• Sorry this post is going up a week late. It was compiled on the morning of April 2 as per the time stamp.
• 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!
