Scott Marquis | 5 comments Two "War for Earth-3" graphic novels seemed to be listed with different covers and can't be combined because their authors were listed differently.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Shows as Kindle Version ISBN 9781779519276 ISBN10: 1779519273 and has the correct cover.

Shows as Paperback Verion ISBN 9781779518033 ISBN10: 177951803X and has the incorrect cover. I am holding the Paperback version in my hand, and it should have cover...

There are no alternate covers for this trade paperback so both the eBook and Paperback editions should be showing the same cover.

I couldn't figure out a way to join the two pages since the Kindle version was listed as author Jeremy Adams and the Paperback version was listed as Robbie Thompson so neither version shows up for each other when you click on show all editions. There were four authors for this graphic novel so they're both right but because they chose a different author for each posting its preventing them from being an "edition" of each other.

Can the Super Librarians combine these editions together using the correct cover I listed?

Changing a cover does not require a superlibrarian.
Combining does not require a superlibrarian.

Please post future requests in the "Book Cover Help" folder or the "Book & Author Page Issues" folder.


Scott Marquis | 5 comments The Superlibrarian issue was that these two ISBNs did not list each other as editions of each other so I couldn't combine them which I see you fixed by choosing the same author for each which I also couldn't find a way to change so thank you for combining them with the correct cover.

Any librarian can change the primary author so editions can be combined. You don't have librarian status, so it's not something you can do.


Scott Marquis | 5 comments OH! Thanks. I thought anyone that joined the librarian group was a regular librarian with limited functionality and the Superlibrarians were the ones with admin/root rights so when I didn't see the options to change the author or combined editions, I thought I needed the Super. So, even though I joined the librarian group I am not a librarian, I'm just a user with very limited rights, gotcha. I'm new so I don't know what's going on. lol
