Generation Lost Versus Amos Fortune

The numbers are in for 2010, and I was a bit surprised by this:

Justice League: Generation Lost sales, 2010

Justice League: Generation Lost has been a good book (if a bit stretched thin). What surprises me is not that it has lost readers over time, but how it continues to lose readers over time at a pretty steady clip. Shouldn't the issue-to-issue sales drop have leveled off a bit by now?

The title is selling great, and should be considered a sales success, even if it is only selling half as many copies as it's sister title, Brightest Day. (That's to be expected, especially since Brightest Day doesn't say Generation Lost on the cover.) I'm just surprised that the sales drop on a limited series like this has been a straight line for most of a year, that's all.

Before you ask, issue 7 spiked sales because the 1:10 alternate cover was part of the "White Lantern" Sistene Chapel montage by Ryan Sook. Issue 7 was also the first Keith Giffen-less issue of the series, but I doubt that drove many new sales.
