Needs repair work
See Superman Vol 1, JSA Vol 1 and Captain Carrot and the Final Ark Vol 1 for examples that contain known problems.
 * Supporting Characters and Featured Characters, The purpose behind this was to create a collapsible character list for comic issue pages where the cast of characters is ridiculously long. See Infinite Crisis Vol 1 6 for a good example.

 * Comic List
 * 1) add Description parameter to begining of template
 * 2) TotalIssues field doesn't appear to do anything
 * 3) fix STARTYEAR and ENDYEAR auto functions
 * 4) change "title selection" to "Comics Contents" (to match page name)
 * 5) fix "BACK TO COMIC SELECTION" section (often points to the wrong letter)
 * 6) reformat Annuals section to have only one listing that incoprorates GetYear
 * 7) elevate Annuals, Specials, Magazines, TradePaperbacks and Notes to full headers
 * 8) enclose all instructions in Usage section in editorial brackets (makes copy-and-paste of the full template easier)
 * 9) move Image Category listing to See Also section
 * 10) add link to Covers
 * 11) make See Also section always visible
 * 12) remove extra line breaks that cause large white space.
