Find the holes in your run
Once you own a few, the series reads, for example, Holes in your run: #4, #7–#9 — the issues you don't own between your first and last owned one — and · 3 newer issues you don’t own after that. Take it to your shop.

If something's off
- There's no Issues section
- The Atlas doesn't list this series' issues yet.
- “Grades have one decimal place.”
- Type the grade like 9.8, not 9.85.
- I removed my only copy but it still says Owned
- Removing a copy doesn't un-mark the issue. Press Owned to clear it.
