gem | 2620 comments Just double checking, do these comics have characters and/or universes in common (Goodreads policy for series)? A lot have missing descriptions so it's hard to tell.

And could you provide a source for the numbering of these 3?

Book #17
More Fun Comics v2 5

Book #25
More Fun Comics v3 1

Book #27
More Fun Comics v3 3


Elizabeth (Alaska) These don't appear to be a series by Goodreads standards. You are free to create a list for them.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but these comics share characters and are set in the same universe, which makes this a valid series according to the GR librarian manual.

lethe | 16360 comments No page numbers, no ISBNs. Looks like they shouldn't be in the database at all.

Hend Elshalkany  | 25 comments I'd like to add a periodical. it's in Arabic. It's called (Women and Civilization) المرأة والحضارة
There are just Three issues of it, issued between 2000 and 2002, yet it is very important reference on the subject of women and Islam.

I looked at a couple. One was an ebook without ISBN or page numbers, the other had no discernable info at all was listed as a paperback, no ISBN or page numbers.

Judging from the covers, they look like comics monthlies to me.


Elizabeth (Alaska) OK, I looked at the first several which are all Kindle editions except one which is a paperback with an ISBN. Still, these do not a series make. They are collections.

lethe | 16360 comments Yes, I have added the links to the ones I looked at. An ebook and a paperback with no further information and covers that look like monthly issues.

The first one is combined with a Kindle. The second one, definitely questionable.
