I've also been using it when it is the same comic series, but not the immediate previous and next issue. This way, if a character doesn't appear for a few years, or just skips an issue or two, we can tell they aren't just in the next issue.

I have noticed some confusion though. When a character appears for a few sequential issues, and then next appears in another series, do we leave the previous appearance line blank, so that it points to the previous issue, or do we fill the field with an "-", so that no arrow appears at all? I've noticed some users going either way, and I could see the arguments for either, but I figure we should choose one and stick with it. The question is, which?
