Avenging Spider-Man #1 TPB included 5 issues. Daredevil (vol. 3) # 3 TPB included 7 issues. My question is, who determines how many issues are included in a TPB? I'd like to get S.H.I.E.L.D. # 1 TPB (and if I like it, # 2 as well) but I'm worried I'll only get a few issues rather than 6-7. DC released a Green Arrow TPB with about 8-9 issues for only $20! I'm also considering a Spider-Verse TPB with the same concerns. Thanks so much!
What determines the size of the collection are the number of issues in the storyline and taking into consideration the next collection to be made as well. We typically shoot to have our collections be around 5-6 issues in length on average (more of oversized hardcovers and the like.)
