 <\/p>\n

We haven’t done this in a while, my apologies. Below are the sales for the Green Lantern related titles including DC’s current event, Forever Evil<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I know what you’re thinking. Forever Evil <\/em>isn’t really a lantern title, but lets be honest, how can a book feature Sinestro vs Power Ring and not be considered a lantern title? The seemingly forever running series came in at #2 overall behind Batman<\/em>, with an estimated 92,014 in sales.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So as a lantern fan, you probably already knew that Green Lantern <\/em>and Red Lanterns <\/em>combined in February for their respective issue #28. So while the book sold almost 50,000 (which was good enough to seat them at #25 overall), the real question is whether the struggling Red Lanterns <\/em>book will see an increase in sales after the shared story. Its definitely worth mentioning that\u00a0<\/em>last month’s\u00a0Green Lantern #27<\/em> came in just a spot below and about a thousand sales less, so I’m sure Venditti and DC are quite happy for that increase. Must have been those folks only reading\u00a0<\/em>about Dex Starr finally picking up a Hal Jordan book.<\/p>\n

Earth 2 #20 <\/em>cracked the top 50 in sales, coming in at #47 with 35,732 estimated sold.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Justice League 3000 #3 <\/em>saw a massive drop in ranking in February, falling from 34 to 57, but only losing about a thousand in estimated sales (February’s sales were about 33,308). While\u00a0Green Lantern Corps\u00a0<\/em>#28\u00a0<\/em>is at the naughty 69 in ranking and estimated sales of 29,142, both of which are down from last month.\u00a0Green Lantern: New Guardians <\/em>#28 <\/em>is just spots below that at 71 with 27,212 in estimated sales. At 93 overall is Injustice Year Two 2<\/em> with 22,703 in estimated sales. These numbers may feel a bit disappointing but literally all comics lose readers every month.\u00a0<\/em>No need to worry about any cancellations with the core titles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Larfleeze <\/em>will be cancelled<\/a> with June’s 12th issue. In February, the Keith Giffen written title ranked at #138 with an estimated 13,338 in sales for its eighth issue.<\/p>\n

In Trade sales news, Green Lantern Wrath of the First Lantern HC sold an estimated 2,478 for a 15th spot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
