Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments I found several comic trade paperbacks (mostly Star Wars) missing publication dates, either the original pub date, the edition pub date, or both.

I went to the publisher's website (Dark Horse Comics and Dynamite Entertainment) to find the original pub dates.

Jozef Nakielski (jozef_nakielski) | 100 comments Am i getting this wrong but to me that makes no sense . The orig date is after the copy date "The Imperial Perspective (Star Wars: Empire, #3)",1593071280,9781593071288,10/27/2004,10/12/2004


message 4: by Nancy (new)

Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments It makes no sense to me either. The copy date (10/12/04) was already listed in Goodreads, and I have no idea where it came from. The original date (10/27/04) is the date I found on the publisher's website. I'm sure there are more instances than this one.


message 5: by Jozef (new)

Jozef Nakielski (jozef_nakielski) | 100 comments thanks, thought i was losing it there. really threw me.


message 6: by Nancy (new)

Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments I'd be inclined to delete the earlier copy date and use the original date in both places, but I'm not a Librarian!


message 7: by Jozef (new)

Jozef Nakielski (jozef_nakielski) | 100 comments I was inclined to leave it to someone who knows better but i've done what you suggested. If someone knows better i'm sure they'll change it Catalina is working from the top soo


message 8: by Catalina (last edited Apr 11, 2013 05:01PM) (new)

Catalina | 2066 comments Not that i know better :D in the case you spotted i see on openISBN(i am unsure if it's reliable...) as publication date 10/12/04(the same with the one in the system); i also sow a preview of the issues and appears only October, no number..


message 9: by Catalina (new)

Catalina | 2066 comments I really need to go, i arrived here: "Star Wars: Tales from the Clone Wars (Webcomic Collection Vol. 1),,,8/12/2010,8/12/2010"
And i also have an unsolved case: ""Star Wars: Legacy, Vol. 2:Shards",159307879X,9781593078799,3/26/2008,3/18/2008"


message 10: by Jozef (new)

Jozef Nakielski (jozef_nakielski) | 100 comments I think they're all done apart from those three and i don't know what to do with them. There's lots of other info missing from them too though.


message 11: by Nancy (new)

Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments Star Wars: Tales from the Clone Wars (Webcomic Collection Vol. 1) was a Star Wars Celebration convention (and StarWarsShop.com) exclusive published by Dark Horse Comics and Dreams and Visions Press. It was first available for sale at the convention on 8/12/10. There is no ISBN on the copy page. The copy page says (C) 2009, 2010, and the forward is dated April 2010. I can provide photos if necessary.

In addition, I show these three as not done yet:

1. Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Last Siege, The Final Truth (Star Wars The Clone Wars #8), 1845762681, 9781845762681, 8/22/2005, 3/29/2006

I think the August date is bogus. The copy page says "First Edition: March 2006". Again, I can provide a picture if necessary.

2. Star Wars: The Clone Wars: When They Were Brothers (Star Wars The Clone Wars #7), 1845761073, 9781845761073, 12/14/2005, 11/30/2005

Copy page says "First Edition: November 2005", so I'd be inclined to use the November date for both places.

3. Star Wars: Legacy, Vol. 2:Shards, 159307879X, 9781593078799, 3/26/2008, 3/18/2008

No idea about this one. Copy page says "First printing: December 2007", publisher website has the 3/26/08 date.


message 12: by Catalina (new)

Catalina | 2066 comments 1) Star Wars: The Clone Wars: When They Were Brothers (Star Wars The Clone Wars #7), 1845761073, 9781845761073, 12/14/2005, 11/30/2005 - I updated this one with the November date.
2)Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Last Siege, The Final Truth (Star Wars The Clone Wars #8), 1845762681, 9781845762681, 8/22/2005, 3/29/2006 - no matter how much I search only the march 2006 date appears, even that some say it was march 22, but better to go with the publisher's date.
3) Star Wars: Legacy, Vol. 2:Shards, 159307879X, 9781593078799, 3/26/2008, 3/18/2008 - also WorldCat has 2007 as year and no matter what the publisher site says we'll go with what's on the book - December 2007 as Original PUB, and i let the march date as ed pub.
4) Star Wars: Tales from the Clone Wars - it;s quite elusive, i cannot find information on it. So i added the convention date as the ed pub and let blank the original pub date. If you can provide the number of pages, it will be great.

Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments Thanks for your help!

Star Wars: Tales from the Clone Wars is 168 pages.

Dreams and Visions Press has it for sale on their website. Perhaps they might be able to provide additional information.

Nancy (decibelle5) | 76 comments No problem!

I've posted another list of titles, all of them with incorrect pub dates. I'd appreciate your help with those as well. Thanks!
