Commentary:

* It looks like Chester Brown's Paying for It will have some legs, as it jumps back up to the #3 slot this week.

* The only new books on the list this week come in near the bottom, with collections of American Vampire, Batgirl, Invincible Iron Man, and Captain America.

* Both Astonishing X-Men Omnibus and The Adventures of Tintin return to the list this week, both having not been seen here since back in 2010.
