maybe duplicate of

The description is identical to the comixology edition https://www.comixology.com/Fathom-Omn... which is exactly what the Kindle is

David Raz (davidraz) | 13082 comments Short version:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Is an individual comics without ISBN. The Kindle it can be merged with is
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Longer version:
You may wonder why issue 14 is to be merged into issue 13.
Originally, Fathom was published in 14 issues by Top Cow. The author was Michael Turner. When Turner left to start Aspen MLT in 2003 he litigated with Top Cow over the rights for Fathom. In 2008 Aspen collected the entire series for the first time (issues 0-9 were previously collected) as "The Fathom, Vol. 1: The Definitive Edition". However, issues 12-14 included appearances of Top Cow characters from Tomb Raider and Witchblade (Lara and Sara) which could not be used, so they were rewritten. In 2011 Aspen reissued the series in single issues, so elements of old issues 12-14 are incorporated in the new issues 12-13. As the cover for the old #14 was used for the new #13 and it includes most of the material, I thought #13 is the best target for the merge. However, it can be argued that the first collection is "The Fathom, Vol. 1: The Definitive Edition".

This was created by mistake, instead of a new edition of an already existing book.

Thank you so much for your help!

Empress (the_empress) If I can get another opinion on this one. Non-supers can help here as well:

I think there are the same book.

IMO difference in cover comes from the angle and cut out of the cover for the edition with the ISBN. (You can see the letters are squashed as well as the round thing on the door, and you can see the bottom of the book): https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...


message 427: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #432 ~I'm not sure either. Depends to me on two things:

Is the light flare from the photograph or the cover?
Is the red line at the bottom cut off from the other.

Given that it's not clear, I'd ACE it, personally.

Melanie (mvalente89) | 2198 comments #432/433 - From what I can see, that red line looks to be the actual book under the dust jacket. And because the book picture was taken at an angle, you can see the side of the book, hence the red line (that white part on the red line is likely the inner flap of the dust jacket).

And the light flare looks like its from a camera flash or an overhead light when the person took the photo in my opinion.

To me they look like dupes and should be merged and the cover replaced with the better quality one.

Hi Melanie. That is what I thought as well, so I got the person that took the picture for this edition to confirm what you are saying here.

I would love to get a confirmation it is okay to proceed with merge, but if advised against I will let it go :)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #454 that's not the correct thread for your problem as you can read in post #1 and the topic it's for deletion of duplicates by a super - not for just moving books from the default profile.
Nontheless moved the books from your profile (removed charlotte miller from the first, not on cover or mentioned on worldcat - moved the second to 2 space profile)
Next time if you have just a moving issue open a new thread and every librarian will help you (that's nothing only supers can)
