And it's another HOXPOX victory at the top with the launch of Excalibur, with Harleen and Silver Surfer close behind…

Who had this to say:

DCeased, specifically the Critters inspired Horror homage cover sold huge this week with no competition from any title really except for Excalibur. Harleen has outpaced our regular Harley sales by such a huge margin that I can only conclude Stjepan Seijic is bigger than Harley Quinn. Basketful of Heads has been the best horror launch in years. Joker Killer Smile didn't do much and I wonder if people are experiencing fatigue from Joker being the focal point of 6 Black Label books recently released or upcoming.
