Tom, Re: Renumbering. I understand the #1 being a smart marketing tool. Recall back around 2009 when all the classic books happened to coincide with centennial issues and their numbers reverted back briefly to legacy numbers? As numbering is now more about sales than organization, is it possible that the big books will try that again in the next few years, or do you think the recent Nova (#100 in spirit only) will be the trend?

Difficult to say. I expect we’ll continue to mark centennial issues in some fashion, simply because, like the #1s, when we do that we see a sales bump, so it makes good business sense. But whether we’ll revert the numbering at that point or continue afterwards with the smaller numbers is another thing. Probably some titles will do one and some will do the other, at least for a while.
