We could be at the start of seeing a few changes to the charts over the summer - University is out and, while we are keeping comics safe in pull lists for those away, they won't show up in the sales chart. So Marvel getting 40% of the chart could be a symptom of that? We also had Batman #24 as a no show thanks to a shipping SNAFU at Diamond which would certainly have challenged the top of the chart.

Having said that Darth Vader #1 had a fantastic debut and sold Batman/Flash numbers in it's first week. Chichester is most definitely Dark Side as the last Vader outsold Star Wars by 2:1 - The new Vader looks to continue or exceed that trend!

The final part of Dark Knight III only landed at #2 but well over 50% of pull lists it is on are yet to pick up (DKIII has a different audience to the main DC books who visit less regularly). So expect the book to be around for some time.

The Walking Dead continue to slowly munch it's way through more readers - we generally have to up our order by 2-3 a month - Seems there are still people finding and loving this book!

Aftershock had another good start for Babyteeth #1 - as well as another successful Donny Cates book (he also writes Redneck and God Country) - Aftershock are also likely to feature next week with Jimmy's Bastards which is likely to top 10 from pre-orders alone :).

For those of you wondering where Secret Empire went - well all 3 released issues were still in top 20 as it continues to get readers picking up all 3 books to get up to date - #4 releases this week with added Ultron!

That's all for this week - CLICK HERE to see the books on next week's list (still  no Batman #24 :/ ) and see you in the store soon!
