Pardon the appearance. If I made the spreadsheet look nicer other blog posts would suffer

COMMENTS
New 52 titles not published during this three-month period are not shown above, though they are shown in previous posts where published
Info derived from The Comic Chronicles; other sites may have different sales figures; rankings listed are for *all* publishers
To keep this list managable Annuals, minis, and titles launched after September 2011 are not covered
In the past, when sales dropped to certain points was noted. However, some titles enjoy bumps due to zero issues, crossovers, or general interest so only their current state is now noted except for 4-digit titles
Flashpoint had already started in July 2011, hence the absense of the previous Flash series
The final issue of Justice League of America and first of Justice League came out the same month, hence the double listing above
Superman #17 missed February and came out in March with #18, hence the italics; both #17 and 18 thus use Mar-13 overall sales rankings
Aquaman missed April and came out in May with #20, hence the italics; both #19 and 20 thus use May-13 overall sales rankings
Titles selling below relaunch levels: Green Lantern, Green Lantern Corps, Birds of Prey, Legion
Selling at less than 50% of Sept/11: Action, GL, Flash, Superman, GL New Guardians, Wonder Woman, Titans, Batwoman, JL Dark, Green Arrow, Swamp Thing, Birds, Superboy, Stormwatch, Batwing, All-Star, all cancelled titles
All the Bat-titles except Batwing tend to have low attrition
Batman is currently DC's highest selling of the above titles and Firestorm its lowest
For percentage of Feb sales over Sept sales, August sales for Justice League#1 were included in Sept sales of same; not a perfect solution but as accurate as we're likely to get
Batman still selling over 100,000 copies
Justice League & Batman are currently selling more than double their pre-renumbering figures
The #7 issues of Blackhawk and Men of War became the first new 52 titles to dip to 4 digits; Mr. Terrific joined them with #8; all ended in the first wave of cancellations
DC Universe Presents and I Vempire ended in April and will not continue to be tracked.
Proponents of the new 52 can use these stats to show that sales are overall healthier than they probably would have been without the reboot
Opponents of the new 52 can use the same figures to show that sales  are gradually slipping and the reboot was probably a bandaid solution in the long term
