- Last Friday's release of the well-received Superman movie brings several related titles back to the top fifty this week, with Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow—reportedly the basis for next year's Supergirl movie—in the top spot (and the deluxe hardcover to the top ten as well). Also benefiting are Superman perennials Superman For All Seasons, Superman: Birthright, and All Star Superman. Having the director of the movie go on social media and talk about the particular stories that are inspirations for the films has gone a long way to cracking the code for super-hero movies to help drive comic sales.
- It's not all Superman though—this week's top debut is a new issue of Absolute Batman on the kindle, while the top print debut is the pre-order for the first Absolute Batman collection.
- Also debuting this week are various volumes of manga series: One-Punch Man, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and The Summer Hikaru Died.
