Calibre/Goodreads on Unraid
What you can try is to use https://github.com/comictagger/comictagger to pre-tag your books. If your books are already imported, you might need a calibre plugin called Embed Comic Metadata. So you can load your zips/cbz from the calibre folder into comictagger -> save. Then load metadata back into calibre via the plugin. BUT BE AWARE: It might override existing data like Title or Series. So doublecheck after autotagging and before re-importing metadata.

Metadata workflow
I was going to suggest taking a look at comictagger - https://github.com/comictagger/comictagger. I'm not 100% on whether it can handle PDFs or epubs though
- Series with 7 issues broken into two different series on the Comic screen with 2 issues in one and 5 in the other.

App that batch derives metadata from filename in .cbz?
Look into comic-tagger. It's a CLI program which has the ability to parse file names of both CBZ and CBR and will attempt to match and pull metadata from comicvine. https://github.com/comictagger/comictagger/releases

Selfhosted Comic/Ebook Library sorted by Folders?
If you do go with another alternative, you can still use ComicVine data with something like ComicTagger. I've not personally used it, but I've seen others use it with success. Hopefully that helps!
