Bookscan’s Graphic Novel Numbers

Nothing too weird about the Bookscan numbers for graphic novels, analysis of which is generally about which manga series' latest volume is at what place in the top ten. It's worth noting that DC received a significant bump for V For Vendetta, a figure through which one must finally conclude -- if you haven't already with the Dark Horse movies of Springs just past -- that movies for comics properties with a you-can-pick-it-up-and-hold-it-over-your-head source (as opposed to 57 Superman trades, say) have a definite, measurable impact on sales familiar to bookstore sellers.
