There's a book that's been re-named and the publication date pushed to mid year 2013, however it's wrong as existing record was of different book; http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... is a compilation of issues 6 - 10, the original edition was just the issue 6 and has already been published last year. Should not have this new one have been added as a separate book/compilation instead of modifying/deleting an existing book. because the edit that was carried out, has also messed up the reviews as well as user statistics. Having said that, issues 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are now missing from GR altogether. Should the individual issues be added again?

looking at the librarian edits log:http://www.goodreads.com/book/edits/1...
it looks to be last edited by a super librarian. perhaps somebody request a deletion in the "delete by super" thread for some reason?
Individual comics aren't generally encouraged on Goodreads so perhaps she was replacing the five individuals with a single paperback.
Why replace? Why not just add a new record? The reviews are all jumbled up and don't necessarily apply to the edition / issues people have reviewed. (some of the issues described as part of this compilation, are yet to be published)
