核心畫面

Picture a library shelf holding one long run of the same title, with only the issue number moving forward. The word is built on the fact of coming out at fixed intervals, not on how entertaining the contents are — which is why it tends to sit with serious or technical subjects rather than with the magazines at a convenience store.
