Commentary:  

• Dog Man: The Scarlet Shedder actually disappeared completely from the Amazon comics chart this week, because Amazon in its "wisdom" reclassified it as a kids book. Which it is, but it is also still the best-selling comic on the platform this week—we are not fooled! 
• (There are probably several other comics from the kids chart that should also be here, but we not going to go out and chase everything just because Amazon can't get the collective act together.)
• The top debut this week is the Kindle edition of X-Men: Forever #4. The to pprint debut is a new volume of Dragon Ball Super.
• The other print debut this week is the Magic Tree House Graphic Novel Starter Set; which as it came out back in 2022 was likely just reclassified by Amazon this week and has likely been selling well for a couple of years...
