Goddamn, these books are dropping! I know I give DC Comics a hard time, but it's only because I care......... Hell, if I wasn't reading and talking about these books all the time I might actually have to go out and get a life and the idea of socializing just gives me anxiety......... and some angina. That last bit just might be because of all the blackness within my heart, making it impossible for that sweet, sweet oxygen to get where it's going. Besides for my own personal trials and tribulations though, we're looking at all of the books that we at Weird Science consider the "Main Books" or the "Meat and Cheese" for some reason. So don't go expecting Vertigo books, collected digital titles.......... or anything really that I just didn't happen to put on here. Let's sit back and relax and check out how our favorite DC Comics did last month and if some of them not coming back after Rebirth is justified........... they mostly are. Let's check it out.

The biggest upset in my mind is how low We Are Robin was in January to its incredible recovery last month. I don't know if people bailed after Robin War only to find out a month too late that we were getting some Jokerz Gang action going on or what, but that's a shit ton of readers coming back to that title!..........That or people just picked other books up that month and came back because we also had that title getting 10,000 more Est. Sales for issue #8 in February...... crazy. Even though We Are Robin is rebounding out of nowhere, I have to say that the craziest thing in my mind to come from the sales in February is how poorly Catwoman is doing because even though there were a lot of people digging Genevieve Valentine's run, this book is a lot of fun now and it was somehow doing better during Anne Nocenti's run and that just doesn't make any sense to me.......... There is something unbalanced with the world!
