It's no secret that the recent DC ring promotion was a marketing ploy to increase sales. (It apparently worked so well that Marvel took action to encourage shops to rip the covers off of remaining stock.) Booster Gold #26 was tied into the ring promotion, and as a result, it was in the top 300 selling books of 2009. In fact, it was the highest selling Booster Gold issue of the series! Not bad for a book barely making the top 100 in any given month, a rate that shouldn't have any issue ranking in much higher than 1000. Sure the numbers fell afterwords, but here's hoping that fighting zombies can inject some new life into a book with some sales numbers that have been slipping pretty consistently, since even before the price hike.
