Hi Thadguidry. You recently created the item comic series (Q27164577), which I just used on a couple of other items, before I noticed that there's also comic book series (Q14406742). Can you tell me what exactly you intended to be the difference between those two items? Is it "story" as opposed to "book" (i.e. comic strip series that might be published in a newspaper etc.vs. the ones published in dedicated magazines)? In any case, the items should be distinguishable better, if possible.

Those can be merged.

It was a result of alignment with Schema.org Types (where I maintain the mapping between the two with Lydia and Dan's assistance). The mapping is maintained in Wikidata itself with various statements like equivalent class, etc.
