| One of these things is not like the other: Three of this week’s best-seller lists had at least one title that seemed a little out of place. The other one, Nook, is so weirdly consistent from week to week that it’s almost an outlier itself. 1. Injustice: Gods Among Us #36 Marvel edges out DC this week with six titles in the top ten, while DC had three (including two Villains Month titles and the final issue of this story arc of Injustice: Gods Among Us) and Image had The Walking Dead. Battle Scars #1 is a bit of an outlier, as it came out in 2011 and wasn’t on sale this past weekend; everything else is fresh this week except The Walking Dead #114, which topped the chart last week. 1. Injustice: Gods Among Us #36 George RR. Martin’s The Hedge Knight graphic novel makes it into the top ten on pre-orders alone, as it won’t be out until November. Also breaking the predictable pattern is Stephen King’s N., which is a couple of years old but is topping the “horror” and “literary” Kindle graphic novel charts right now. 1. Injustice: Gods Among Us #35 This list is so consistent from week to week that I wonder if anyone is buying any comics at all on the Nook. Last week’s list is almost identical. Are there that many people buying It’s a Dog’s Life Snoopy each week, or are total sales barely changing from week to week? iBooks 1. Injustice: Gods Among Us #36 The outlier here is the graphic novel Blue Is the Warmest Color, but that’s not too surprising as the film based on the book took the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival and has been getting a lot of press lately, ahead of its U.S. release. Other than that, it’s another week of ponies, zombies, and embattled superheroes down at iBooks. Digital Comics Best-Sellers for September 22, 2013 is a post from: E-Reader News |
