Commentary: 

• 100 Grumpy Animals previously showed up on the chart for one week back in August 2020; and now it not only suddenly returns to the chart almost exactly two years later, it take the top spot and the hardcover edition also shows up. The Amazon comics chart never ceases to amaze me...
• Plenty of new titles this week, with three manga volumes debuting in the top ten: One Piece, Vol. 100; Bleach 20th Anniversary Edition, Vol. 1; and Dragon Ball Super, Vol. 16. Other print debuts include a Sandman collection (hi Netflix!) while Kindle single issues this week feature X-Men and Batman. Finally, the digital and print editions of the complete Paper Girls series debut down near the end.
• Be kind to each other!
