Back again. You’re welcome. Here you will find comic sales for your favorite lantern related titles for the month of March. Let’s see where the chips landed this time around.

 

If you missed it in the image above, Green Lantern #29 just missed the cut for top 30. With an estimated sales of 45,797, that puts them in #31 overall which is a six spot drop in rank from the hybrid issue of last month. However the Power Ring/Sinestro featuring event title, Forever Evil comes in at #3, with its sixth issue(falling just two spots and selling an estimated 92,000 sold).

 

Maybe I shouldn’t be surprised but this collection of titles and their ranks are really throwing me off. Earth 2 #21 comes in at 49th overall, above other titles like Iron Man, Captain America, Wonder Woman, Action Comics and Hawkeye. I guess that speaks a lot to what James Robinson built and what Tom Taylor has started. E2 has an estimated sales of 35,295 which is just a few hundred lost from last month. Quite impressive.

Justice League 3000 is still trying to find its audience but is another one of those titles I thought was doing far better than their rank shows. The fourth issue of the series comes in at #66 (a nine spot drop from last month) and a loss of about 3,000 readers from February. So I guess I was wrong.

Green Lantern Corps #29 comes in at 76 with an estimated sales at 27,754. That’s seven down from last month. Sad face. I’d have to do a lot more research than I the copy and pasting I do here to actually see how big of a problem this is for the title. I my assumption is that its quite par for the course. As I mentioned earlier with Earth 2, these titles are surrounded by other big name books. Not big named creators but staples of the superhero industry. Well, excluding being outranked by Buffy and Loki, of course but none of us expect that to be the cast next week. As we head into the “Uprising” storyline, we should see an increase in promotion and hopefully that’ll help level out some of these titles.

 

Now here’s another interesting bit. Actually a few interesting bits. Green Lantern: New Guardians #29 lands at 88th overall, under the canceled and soon to be relaunched Teen Titans and heavily promoted fresh Marvel titles: She-Hulk, New Warriors and All New X-Factor. New Guardians has an estimated sales of 25,296. So that title loses a massive eighteen spots but still less readers left than Justice League 3000 (which lost around 3000, ironically). Red Lanterns #29 is another interesting bit because it stood the most to gain from last month’s hybrid issue with GL. This month lands Red Lanterns at 89th overall with an estimated sales amount of 25,153 which is…drum roll please…a two spot increase from its last solo venture in January, and an increase of almost 700 readers! The trick now is to see if those 700 readers stick around. Still, this should be celebrated. Any increase in sales is a rarity, so if just one of those readers sticks around after issue 30, then I’d say job well done Charles Soule. On another angry lantern note, Supergirl #29 came in at 99 overall and just short of 23,000 sold. Larfleeze #9 saw a twelve spot drop to 150 after news of its impending cancellation hit (estimated sales are 12,797).
