Foreign editions and (Complete with Variants) sets 2 2

What's the current practice for foreign editions with regard to (Complete) or (Complete with Variants) sets? For example, the Black Hole (Charles Burns) set is intended as a Complete with Variants set and includes the assorted 2nd and 3rd printings of those books. Right now, neither the German nor Spanish editions of this series have been graded (although I've got German issues in queue). When the time comes, can those be included in the existing set, or will they need a parallel set exclusively for foreign editions?

Likewise, regarding the Babylon 5 set, the three-issue In Valen's Name mini-series was originally published (serialized over 6 issues) in the UK-published volume 1 of the Babylon 5 Magazine. That feels like a different situation than foreign reprints of books. If those are graded at some point, would they be eligible to be added to the Babylon 5 registry set?

Hello @Qalyar

The difference between Complete and Complete with Variants is that Complete with Variants will allow each variant and additional print to have its own slot. Please note that foreign editions are not eligible for either set. Please find a list of guidelines below.
