I am curious as to how the new legacy numbering works for the new Marvel issues.
Mainly, take for instance the Punisher series. Latest legacy number is like 229, but is there a way to determine which volumes make up the numbering and in what order. Some are listed as Punisher, others Punisher, The and another as Frank Castle, The Punisher.
Some are obvious, Like Amazing Spider-man. Pretty straight forward.
Others, not so much
Captain America starts at #100, previously tales of suspense 1 - 99, but is the numbering from Tales of Suspense included in the legacy numbering for Captain America, latest issue being Volume 10 #3 (Legacy 707)
The Punisher series are the most troublesome, there are so many different volumes and runs, its hard to track
I only ask, because as I upgrade my comic room and shelving/storage, I want to put in order, as much as possible, each of the main series, ie Spider-man. Hulk, Avengers, Teen Titans, Batman (yes DC even has some odd way of running things) so an and so forth.
Any suggestions or is just gonna be look at the series dates, volume numbers etc. and decipher it from there?
Thanks
Ben

After going thru the legacy number from planet comics, provided by Marvel, I think they have their numbering off. I couldn't find where they included the following two series:
PUNISHER, THE
2001-2004 | Volume 6 | Marvel Knights | 36,412 Searches Volume 4 in indicia.
PUNISHER, THE
2004-2009 | Volume 7 | Marvel | 38,907 Searches Title becomes Punisher: Frank Castle MAX w/ issue #66

Could they be included in vol. 5? Like moon knight's newest stuff this site has vol.8/9 where every other site has it all as vol. 8 with a numbering jump between #1-14/#188-200 for all 61 issues so far.

I don't think so, I built a spreadsheet so I could accurately follow along, and it isn't possible to included those two series with what they have provided as their numbering order, kinda like amazing Spider-Man, some issues are 19.1 and 20.1 on one of the series, are those considered variants, or regular issues for that numbering order. I am soooo confused!!!! lol

Here is another discrepancy with Marvel Legacy Numbering. Its Incredible Hulk, the attached picture shows Legacy Numbering beginning with Tales to astonish as 1 thru 101 before switching to Incredible Hulk Vol 2. But where is Incredible Hulk Vol 1 1 thru 6 (May, 1962), which is somewhere in the middle of the Tales to Astonish time line (1959-1968). Im thinking that Marvel needs to relook at just how they are doing this, but I haven't the faintest idea as to whom one would even tell!! lol
