Also most of gail run the sales went up a bit. Had some time in the top 20, out of it later on. Sitting pretty well in the 70's at its worst

Yeah, that's just flat out factually incorrect.

53,090
44,628
42,897
41,948
40,771
39,489
38,116
37,086
36,514
35,562
34,583
33,583
33,277
32,322
32,622
33,237
33,365
31,857
33,065
32,755
30,131
29,657
28,806
26,972
26,265
26,152
25,156

I'll give you one guess what those numbers represent, but since you'll probably need way more than one guess, I'll just tell you.

It's Wonder Woman's sales figures starting with Gail's first issue.  First issue is at the top.  If you follow the numbers starting at the top and moving your way down, you'll notice a trend which can not accurately be described as "up" by any definition of which I am aware.

Why would I have to do that to see that she was losing readers at a consistent clip for the entire duration of her run?

But in the extremely likely chance that you still think you have a point...

132,580
84,618
76,998
69,860
64,414
62,458
60,168
58,772
58,561
54,472
52,983
50,880
48,385

One of those is the first issue of the recent relaunch, and another is the last issue before she took over the book.

I'll let you sort out the particulars.

Wait wait, so virtually every single issue of Gail's run sold worse than the entirety of the run before hers? She was actually poison to that book? Weird.

It wasn't that she was poison, it was that the book had just been relaunched with a new number 1 with a big time creative team and shit. Then it tied into events, and then finally Simone took over.

It's more like she had no noticeable effect on the existing downward trajectory of the book's sales.
