Checklists for Comics
Regular comics usually have issue numbers. The issue number starts at number one (sometimes number zero), and ascends numerically one issue number at at time corresponding to each chronologically released issue. Standard comics from DC Comics and Marvel comics usually come out one issue every 4 weeks, sometimes one issue every month. Recording your collected issue numbers on a piece of paper forms a checklist. If you are collecting an older series of comics from a completed or finished series, and are buying back issues (back issues are older comics which have been released in the past), having a checklist with the issue numbers you already own is an easy way to see the issue numbers you still need to complete your collection. By persisting and persevering with back issue collecting from older series and ticking off the issue numbers as you go, in time you can complete the series. This allows you to enjoy reading the full collection without any interruptions in the issue you might not have, thus maximising comic reading enjoyment. Of course, you can keep your records of older issues in a notebook, or even on a computer database or word processing file. But not only comics, but bulletins, newspapers, magazines and so on - anything which has a numbered or monthly indicated issue, can be solidly and reliably collected by recording the details of the issue numbers.
