Scraper putting additional info in title field

[GoogleCodeExporter]

DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM:
After scraping, a comic's title field contains a string of the form <Series 
Name> #<issue number> - <Title> instead of just <Title>. This appears to happen 
with all titles both old and new releases.

WHAT STEPS WILL REPRODUCE THIS PROBLEM? (Please include the exact name of
the eComic book that you were trying to scrape, if possible.)
1. Successfully scrape a comic (Cable and X-Force 18, for example)
2. View Title field of scraped book (Cable and X-Force #18 - Vendetta Part 1)

WHAT VERSION OF COMICVINESCRAPER ARE YOU USING?
1.0.71 (also happened in 1.0.70)

PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT MAY BE OF USE
Probably a result of the same API change that caused a need for 1.0.71

Honestly not a Low priority, in my opinion. It's a basic and essential reason 
to have the plugin.

Really?  Not having the series name in the title is a "basic and essential 
reason" to have the plugin?  So, like, if I can't figure out a way to convince 
the ComicVine guys to stop including it, we've all lost one of the main reasons 
for the plugin's existence?

Are you sure this isn't just a small detail that you don't happen to like?

Oh dude, not at all, though I do realize I sounded pretty curt and schmucky. 
Apologies for that. Of course it's not a reason to drop the plugin. But you 
have to admit -- that field is pivotal to enough users' organization that there 
other plugins built around it (e.g. Story Arc). Didn't mean to pile on the 
pressure, I see you're on CV's forum getting to the bottom of API changes. No 
hard feelings?

I think its a pretty high priority for me personally. But with the current 
shenanigans happening with the API it's unclear if this is going to change 
again in the coming days, or be a permanent change. So it's probably a low 
priority for development given the inherent lack of clarity about what's going 
to happen with CV's API. 

If this does end up being something CV stays with permanently it'd probably be 
fairly simple to add an option for removing the first part of the string before 
writing it into the comics tag.

Yes, I can (and will) fix this problem if ComicVine doesn't do anything about 
it.

I've posted information for them about it here:

Wow. That was fast. This issue is already fixed in CV's API and scraped comics 
now pull down just the title. So you can probably close this issue.

Wow, I guess they're working late tonight!
