Extra: ICv2 posts Bookscan numbers

One thing before I head out: ICv2 has begun posting the monthly BookScan top 20 graphic novel chart. Because BookScan covers mostly bookstores, we can have lots of fun comparing it to the monthly Diamond chart, which is based on sales in comics stores. The difference is immediately evident: While manga tends to populate the lower reaches of the Diamond top 100, the first five titles on the BookScan chart are recent volumes of Naruto, Fruits Basket, Negima, and Fullmetal Alchemist, plus Death Note: How to Read.
