The sixth volume of The Adventure Zone heads the list of the Top 20 best-selling Adult graphic novels according to Circana (formerly NPD) BookScan data for July 2024 (7/7/24 – 8/3/24) provided to ICv2.

The Adventure Zone graphic novel series launched in 2018 (see "Preview: 'The Adventure Zone'"), and new volumes always debut in first or second place on the chart, although the hardcover edition no longer makes the Top 20.  This series will eventually become part of the recently announced 23rd St. imprint (see "First Second Launches Sister Imprint"), but this volume is still listed as First Second Books.

Disney Manga: Stitch, which is in fourth place, was released late in the month on July 30.  This collection of three previously released volumes relocates Stitch to the island of Okinawa and gives him a new friend, a girl named Yuna.

Another late-July release, Junji Ito's short story collection Alley, is at number 6.

And after years of absence, DC appears in the Adult Top 20 for the second month in a row (see "June 2024 Circana BookScan"), with Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong at number 18.
