Aprils TF comic sales rank in from Newsarama: http://www.newsarama.com/marketreport/apr06sales.html

Rank
68 Transformers Infiltration #4- estimated 27,500 copies sold
87 TF Beast Wars #3- estimated 23,000 copies sold
98 GIJoe/TF #2-estimated 20,900 copies sold
112 TF Generations #2-estimated copies pending

We're seeing the same phenomenon now that we saw with DW's sales the last year of its run. Namely, a slow loss of a couple thousand fans with each issue.

I expect to see Stormbringer give us a spike in sales, as well as Evolutions and the upcoming one-shot series.

Well, I think Stormbringer will give a small spike in sales, but I'm not so sure about Evolutions.

Maybe some of the one-shots will get pretty good sales. All depends on the character there.

Now, bring on Blaster damnit!

Can't believe how well Transformers Generations has performed. Generations #2 placed at #112.

That's amazing for a reprint! I mean, its beating out so many other comics in the 300 that I would not have thought possible.

Definitely the most pleasant of surprises for IDW.
