I don't, unless the variant has extra content, for example
the first Lady Death series has an encore variant's that have like 10 extra pages it also has two versions of the tpb one reprints the regular issues the other reprints the encore variants. Plus if you do say a secret invasion TPB you'd have to add 50 books instead of 8 Last edited April 9, 2009 1:21:33 pm What's yours is mine, what's mine is mine Too.

But what if it reprints ALL covers for each issue inside the TPB?

I thought about that earlier. Pretty much it's up to how you guys want to do it I just haven't been doing that mainly because I have know way of knowing if the variant prints are in them or not (which most of the time they are) Unless I own it. It wouldn't hurt if you listed the variants too

Or what if it's a collection of covers that doesn't include the interior art?
I tend to include variants, but I understand either philosophy. If it includes all the variant covers and any extra material, it should definitely include the variants.

Oh man if we clean up those tpb and put them all in the series like you hinted at in the other thread I think it will loose the info you entered during the merge, I think
Joshschr does it loose the info or is it just another update lag  What's yours is mine, what's mine is mine Too. If you shake my hand better count your fingers! |
