The author is able to decide which edition is the default and if he was concerned, he would change it.
Well, the author is not a Goodreads member. Nonetheless, the default edition stays as is -- until more users shelve a different edition, at least.

I think you misunderstood me! It's not a matter of looking pretty.
This book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... is part of the wrong series now. That's what I'm saying. The correct series for this book is this one https://www.goodreads.com/series/5985..., which is already a part of. But it's book 11. They didn't number the books in the first editions.
Please read this page: http://hellblazer.wikia.com/wiki/Rake...
As you can see here the title "Rake at the Gates of Hell" was published in 2003 and it belongs between the "Damnation's Flame" and "Son of Man". It has ISBN: 1-40120-002-8 and collects issues Hellblazer #78-#83. This one belongs to the series I just mentioned above (https://www.goodreads.com/series/5985...).
Now we have another title. It's called "Hellblazer, Vol. 8: Rake at the Gates of Hell".
It was published in June 2014. The ISBN is: 1-40124-749-0 and collects Hellblazer #72–83 and Heartland #1. It belongs to this series: https://www.goodreads.com/series/1214....
Can you understand my point?
These two books have minor differences and almost the same title. And that's the confusion. The 2003 edition isn't Vol.8. It's simply: "Rake at the Gates of Hell". But because of this mistake, I imagine is being added to the wrong series.
I understand that changing default editions and titles is not your decision to make, I just wanted to point it out.
Thank you for replying!
Keep up the good work!
Claudia :)

Scratch that, there are cover issues. Resorting now.
I am currently reading this series https://www.goodreads.com/series/1214.... As you notice all these books are new editions published since 2011. For some reason when this series was created book #8 has the old edition listed in the series, can you please fix that? The correct edition is this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1..., which was published this year.
