Design for print- Visual inspiration

Format
Below are examples of design that is similar to those I have in mind for the element of print. Because the book is going to be a fortnightly series, it is going to be multiple publications therefore I have to find a way of binding them so they work individually or together as a set.
.
Above is something that could possibly work for me, the numbered tabs could be each volume so every fortnight you just add the newest volume yourself so at the end of all the volumes you one large publication bound using a two prong device, or you could keep them individually bound if you're only interested in one particular subject you don't have to buy all the rest. Below is another example of the two prong bind but this time with a fold out which enable me to reduce the format of the book but still have larger sheets without compromise.

Another idea is to have each volume a different format to differentiate between each one, although this is a good idea it could prove difficult to read the first volume especially when they're bound together as a whole. However there are different ways of changing the formats, instead of changing the entire size like all of my examples below I could just change the width instead. This could still prove difficult to read but I believe it'll work better in the hand as you don't have both the height and width to contend with and hold.
