Title with number sorting oddity...

[Fred Slota]

Okay, so titles with initial numbers are sorting numerically based on the full number... Zero, fraction, 1, 2, 3, ... , 9, 10, 11, etc. This recognizes initial '0' (See "07-Ghost) and commas (See "5,000 km Per Second")


And Series and Volume numbering sorts so 1, 2, 3, ..., 9, 10, 11, etc.


But then we have the following:

A1 (4th Series)
A-10 Comics Presents
A-1 Big Book of Crime Comics

and later:

Adam-12
Adam.3

and later:

X/1999
X-23
...
X-23: The Complete Collection
X-51
X-9: Secret Agent Corrigan


Which does not recognize full numbers.


But we also have:

X-Men 2 Prequel: Wolverine
X-Men '92
X-Men '92 (2nd Series)
X-Men 2009



What should we expect for non-leading numbers?


I vote for the same numeric treatment as happens for leading numbers.
