We'll eventually get these these on the page, and for some of these, they need to be added to the regular LPH as well. If you dont mind, I'll use your list above as a to-do list and simply strike through them as they are added. However, a couple of questions:

  1. Ambush Bug specials - Do you consider these a mini-series? I was planning on putting these on a page for specials and one-shots.
  2. Subs - same as #1
  3. DC One Million - Is this considered a separate series? I always have considered these issues to be part of the regular series to which they correspond. I guess it makes sense to put them together, though.
  4. Crisis and other "longer" mini-series - I dont know why, but when I first built the page I was only looking at series that have a few issues. However, you are correct in that the page rightly should contain any series that is published with a planned finite number of issues. (i.e not ongoing series that were cancelled)
