Relaunches back to old numbering

A run that starts (or jumps) at an old issue number, like Avengers #672 in 2017. Metron, ComicVine and the publishers' own sites (checked: Marvel.com, DC.com) keep each as its own volume; collector price guides file them under Vol 1. Longbox keeps both: its own volume number, and the old numbering on record. Case by case (D-017, D-021).

Already settled by your Data Manager research: 36 runs like these. They stand (D-017).
Their own volume by name: 21 runs that carry on another run's numbers under a new name. Your research numbers these as their own volume (Captain America and Bucky, The Uncanny X-Men), so they aren't asked. Say so in chat if one is wrong.
