  • Hi, these modern Star Wars books... I'm just wondering if they should all be prefixed with - Star Wars:

    'Darth Vader' should be 'Star Wars: Darth Vader'
    Same for - Obi-Wan and Anakin, Princess Leia, and I think there's one or two more

    Keeps them all together that way and makes it easier to navigate the list. Just a thought.

  • What does it say the title is in the indicia? That's how we try to list them.

  • i agree with lavaman and have been changing them over when i come across them...it keeps them aesthetically consistant with the other star wars stuff and doesnt affect the searchability, but im not a star wars guy so im not really sure how many recent runs were released. so if there are more you find, pm me and i shall fix them...

    the last couple i changed were han solo and vader down....

  • But unless it says "Star Wars" in the indicia I don't think we should be adding it to the title.

  • the reason i started doing it was the volume numbering...when volume 1 reads

    Star Wars: Darth Vader

    and volume 2 reads:

    Darth Vader

    then you are left with 2 books on opposite sides of the search field but being connected volume wise just not name wise...its easier to look in 1 spot for the proper books:

    Star Wars: Darth Vader Vol. 1
    Star Wars: Darth Vader Vol. 2

    then to think i need to look in the Ds and Ss even though both cover say "Star Wars:"


    kinda like the issue we had with the Blood & Glory books where we now list it as Blood & Glory (Punisher & Captain America) (or however it reads now) solely done for search purposes

  • Then do a link from the last issue of the first series to the 1st issue of the 2nd series.
    That way people who have he 1st series will know where or about the 2nd series.
    And does it say Vol. 2 in the 2nd series?

  • i dont know how they read, dont own very many...i was doing it for search purposes and being able to find it for someone like me who doesnt know SW that as much as others, ive had pms about where to find certain books and SW was one of them which sparked the initial reason i started changing them slowly....we need a SW reader to confirm really...

  • Yeah I hear you, but if we have a set way for entering them here we should probably stick to it.

  • I noticed over on comic book resources that the indicia for the new Darth Maul series does have Star Wars in front of it

  • oh ok so then it may have been a mistake from the start on not adding it.. i did think to myself awhile ago that it was odd that it wasnt included lol

  • I'm your Star Wars Guy! Dancing
    Here's the exact indicia of the following new Marvel Star Wars books, straight from my "S" box:

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens Adaptation
    Han Solo
    Lando
    Princess Leia
    Darth Maul
    Darth Vader
    Doctor Aphra
    Journey To Star Wars: The Force Awakens - Shattered Empire
    Poe Dameron
    Chewbacca
    Obi-Wan and Anakin
    Star Wars Special: C-3PO
    Kanan - The Last Padawan
    Star Wars: Vader Down

    And of course. . .

    Star Wars

    Only Vader Down and the Force Awakens adaptation have the "Star Wars: Title" in the indicia
    But on the cover of every last one of them it says "Star Wars Title"

    Hope that helps

  • They largely only have "Star Wars" on the cover to help sell books. It could also be a requirement with the Star Wars/Disney license that anything related to Star Wars must have that on the cover.
