Title with only variants

[Adam Sternberg 0]

Before I submit these proposed changes, I'd like to get an ruling.  I've seen at least one title that consists of nothing but variants.  That is, all the issues are 1/A, 2/A, 3/A, etc. instead of 1, 2, 3, etc.  The title I saw most recently with this is IDW's Walt Disney's Comics and Stories (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/TitleDetail.aspx?TitleID=59697&M=1).

 

Mark Castaneda, any guidance on whether these should be converted from variants to regular issues?

Thanks

Mickey Mouse and Friends 301/A is a single-issue example of this (I propose the issue really should be 301).  https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/473217/1/Mickey-Mouse-and-Friends-301A

We don't want to force an issue number change at this point. The title/issues released years ago (2018 in this case); we fear it will adjust users database collections if we force such a change. Same can be said for MM & F #301/A

I was afraid you'd say that, but I totally get it.  I'll change them in my copy of the data
