Off My Mind: Is there need to add international reprints here?

By KurtWagner August 26, 2010 5 Comments

Surfing through the ComicVine, I've seen many international reprints of american comic books like  I Fantastici Quattro, Il Mitico Thor, X-Marvel (obvious reprints of Fantastic Four, Journey Into Mystery and X-Factor) and many others. Every title page of those reprints is a hell of a mess with dozens of missed issues and unknown releases. In addition they appear on many classic characters' pages like Fantastic Four, Thor, X-Factor and others. This is kinda annoying when you are seaching information about titles in which the character appears, and it's very frustrating when you see some international retro reprints in that part of the character/team/place/object, where you expect to see the new issues with this character/team/place/object .
Original american paperbacks or hardcovers reprints whole stories, plots, huge packs of issues, or whatever with additional information (like variant covers or sketches etc.) or without it, but the pages for these titles can be really helpful unlike those international reprints. 
I mean, those publishers ( Play Press, Editoriale Corno etc.) have their own material to be added here, so what for those minions of multilingual reprints are?

 Russian reprint of  Contest of Champions II#1

Some russian publishers are reprinting many famous comic books and manga, so I can upload this information here too, but I don't even want to do this, 'cause it will pollute this site like those other international reprints.
 So here is the question: should those international reprints pages be here or not? What do you think?

P.S. I don't mean anything bad against italians or other people and this question is not nationalistic or rasict or whatever.
