Like last month (see "April 2017 BookScan – Top 20 Adult Graphic Novels"), the latest Saga volume was the #1 release, and the second omnibus volume hit the charts at #3 (at $49.99).
The first volume of Dragon Ball Super was the #2 graphic novel on the chart, one of ten VIZ Media titles in the Top 20.
And we continue to track My Favorite Thing Is Monsters from Fantagraphics Books, which is not only in the Top 20 for the third month, but at a new high rank of #5.
