• Note: DramaQueen releases are a mystery I’ve yet to grok; titles are listed below with the most recent release dates found on online sales sites, though this may reflect either a resolicitation of previous releases, a final appearance of much-delayed titles, or something new. On the one hand, I can’t be arsed to figure out the difference, and on the other— I’d Like To Welcome DramaQueen Back to the realm of the living. Anyway, dates as listed (here and elsewhere) are, um, just a best guess.

So, my final comment: Maximum Ride? Really? This is a marginal story at best (teens, with wings, and the evil gubment is hunting them, etc etc ad nauseum) even before the GN treatment, and not only are you folks eating this up, you’re preordering the graphic novels without knowing when or if they’ll be available? I mean, hat tip to Yen for finding a steady income stream but Patterson? Global-nominally-original-[airquote]manga[/airquote] about teen [airquote]_angels_[/airquote]? If I didn’t own a full run of Pastel, a sin that keeps me from arguing anything from the moral high ground, I’d be lambasting these fans and lamenting what has become of the overall fanbase. As it stands, well… OK, I’m not buying it — and as stated: Kudos to Yen.

Manga Midlist 500
(adjusted sales rankings excluding volumes from the top 5 series)
for the week ending 9 November 2008

To better illustrate how 2nd-tier titles are performing, the 100 or so books from the top 5 series are excluded, and then a top 500 chart (this ‘Midlist 500’) is re-run and re-numbered with the volumes that remain.
