What about moving them to the "Recap" namespace? They are not episodes in the same sense of TV series episodes, but it's the same idea, individual entries of the greater story of the work that has a page, and who have an order and structure.

I think issues would be the comics equivalent of an episode, but that's not a bad idea in general.

However, the problem here is that these two sections don't even recap anything. The first folder literally only tells you what issues are in each trade, while the second doesn't even give you that and is just an opinion piece on a different series of trade paperbacks.

At best, the part for individual trades could go on each series' individual page, and I don't think we should even do that (heck, it's not even completely accurate or comprehensive). The part on line-wide part should just be deleted outright.

A collected edition / trade paperback could be split off into its own work page. The editorializing on the merits of how to do a collection can probably just be removed. PM the editor who added that and tell them that's what the review function is for.

Cool, I'll split off the collected section so that it's only on the relevant work's page and not here if appropriate.
