Countdown explination: This is the first month that the books were not returnable, so this is the first month you actually see the real Countdown numbers. When books are returnable, Diamond releases the numbers and takes a percentage off. So, these numbers didn't go *up*, they just didn't go down any more than the %-off numbers of the month before.

Am I making sense? (sorry, I can't give what % they take off, but I can tell you it is in double digits...)
