Most Relaunched Titles

Moon Knight and Iron Fist should be on the list, too.

I'm guessing they just figure that it goes without saying that most books are ended and then relaunched because of sagging sales that they are either trying to boost through a cancel relaunch right away or are canceling to try again later with a relaunch to get better sales.

It is sometimes crazy to think how much popularity some characters like Iron Fist, Moon Knight, Punisher, She-Hulk, Legion and some others have...yet they can't ever seem to sell enough to maintain titles for long (not counting the titles where the writer/artist team decides to leave and the book gets canceled because of that to be relaunched under someone else like the last Moon Knight ending cause of Bendis leaving or this new Punisher ending as Rucka is done with his story). Popularity does not equal title sales. Which is not always just that people don't want to read them, but sometimes the creative direction is just crappy. I mean Punisher as an Angel? No thanks.

And some have the bad luck of having a great team with a great direction and then when the creative team decides to call it quits and move on the next team just can't match the energy or brings in a really lame effort. Like the follow ups to BKV on Runaways. None matched up even close. The least offensive was Whedon and even that was subpar.

It is crazy to think just how many volumes Legion and Punisher have gone through. They're like that one idea that doesn't pan out but you just keep trying cause you like it and the people like the concept but just can't always find the right execution of the idea.
