New title added to Comic Books:  Infinity (Fanzine)
•  I would recommend that this title be moved to the Magazine category.  I took a quick look through my copies of issues #4, #5, and #6.  Each of those issues contained at most 25% comics; the rest of the content was prose of various types, illustration artwork, occasional photographs, and editorial content.  I believe that I have issues #2 and #3.1 as well, and I can dig those out to check the contents if necessary, but my recollection is that the content in those issues was also not majority comics.  
•  What is the provenance for the cover dates of these issues? 
     Looking at the cover dates for issues #2 through #6, the 2/1976 cover date for #1 does not appear to be correct. 
     For issue #4, the year "1972" is on the cover, but I am unable to find a cover date month in my copy of that issue even though CB lists Jan 1972 (mycomicshop.com lists "May 1973" but that does not seem to match with the year on the cover).   
     For issue #5, the year "1973" is on the cover, but I am unable to find a cover date month in my copy of that issue.  There is a reference to the summer in an editorial, but no date is listed in the indicia that I can find.  (CB lists Jan 1973, and mycomicshop.com lists June 1973.)
     For issue #6, the cover date "January 1976" is clearly listed on the cover, and that matches the CB entry.  
     I will have to locate my copies of issues #2 and #3.1 to see what is up with their cover dates (I don't have copies of issue #1 or #3.2).  

 

New title added to Comic Books:  All-Star Superman 1 Special Edition (WBT AMC Theaters)
Flagging this one because it is unusual (although not necessarily unheard of) for issue numbers to appear in a title.  Is this the best way to handle this particular issue?
