So, the next five issues of Batman and Robin are going to be called "Batman and Red Robin," "Batman and Red Hood," "Batman and Batgirl" etc. but keep the same numbering. Should new volumes be made for each of these issues, or to keep things simple stick to the standard Batman and Robin volume?
Question about Batman and Robin volume
I personally like the idea of using the aliases now that we have them. Captain America and ... was listed and if you go to Marvel's page the list it as such and a single volume http://marvel.com/comics/series/16325/captain_america_and._2012. Also from a reading standpoint it's less confusing too.
So two pages of the same issue then? :s

Only problem with this is story arcs and reviews.
@wmwadeii: @billy_batson: I'm waiting until I or someone I know sees the indicia to confirm which to go with.

I think what Billy was saying was to create two different pages of the same issue, one under the original volume and a second in a new volume with the indicia. I was trying to explain why this was a bad idea.
So, the indicia is listed as "Batman and Red Robin (Batman and Robin)" because things can't be simple. So, there's an issue on the regular volume's page, and there's a Batman and Red Robin volume... one of them can go I guess. If the standalone volume is axed, then the regular volume is going to need a "Batman and Red Robin/Red Hood/Batgirl/Catwoman/Nightwing" alias.
@pikahyper: Yep, figured as much. I actually prefer it that way, makes things simpler. Just don't forget the aliases then!

Nah, fhiz had added two issues, hence my post :p

@billy_batson: that was another user that added the second one, Fhiz just added content to it so it looked like he had added it.
I'm gonna stick to a single volume since that is what is shows in the indicia brackets, I'll have to delete the one you added Fhiz.
This is the same way Skullkickers new issues for Uncanny Skullkickers and Savage Skullkickers have the original title in brackets too. Should they now be combined under this new criteria?
@pikahyper: Okay.
@pikahyper: gotcha, forgot it had the # 1. Then again the Skullkickers thing is a whole joke by Image but I get what your saying.
@wmwadeii: ya I read an article about the Skullkickers thing and they are doing it for the attention and sales, they don't seem to care one way or the other how things are getting cataloged, in a retailer sense it makes sense to keep the Skullkickers stuff together but for an informational wiki we need to be more accurate.
