Ongoing series

In comics, an ongoing series is a series that runs indefinitely.[1][2][3] This is in contrast to limited series (a series intended to end after a certain number of issues thus limited), a one shot (a comic book which is not a part of an ongoing series), a graphic novel, or a trade paperback, but a series of graphic novels may be considered ongoing as well.[1][3][4] The term may also informally refer to a current or incomplete limited series with a predetermined number of issues.
