The Author chart is a tad monotonous, with 11 volumes of Solo Leveling taking up the top 11 slots. Aside from Vol. 11 of that series, there's only one other new title on the chart: Vol. 7 of Villains Are Destined to Die, another manhwa series. All the other graphic novels on this chart are backlist titles, including three volumes of the Invincible Compendium.

The Manga chart doesn’t have quite that level of repetition, but it's worth noting that there are five volumes of Dandadan, and two each of Jujutsu Kaisen, Berserk Deluxe, and The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn’t a Guy at All. Of these, The Guy She Was Interested In… is the outlier. It's unusual for yuri manga to make the chart at all, but two volumes is pretty special.
Eight of the Top 20 titles are new volumes of manga series that came out in January or February of 2025, with a handful of older titles and first volumes of established series sprinkled in.

The Superhero chart includes the first two Marvel Premier Collection titles (see "Marvel Premier Collection Launching in February 2025"), as well as four of their DC counterparts, DC Compact Comics (and as has become increasingly common, both the Compact Comics and the 2019 edition of Watchmen make the Top 20). And while Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin continues its run at the top of the Superhero chart, there are some new releases down below, including Vol. 1 of Ultimates, Vol. 1 of Ultimate Spider-Man, Godzilla vs. the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers II, and Absolute Power. All in all, the chart is a mix of old and new titles.
