Bad object handling when CVDB is deleted

[GoogleCodeExporter]

DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM:
Re-scraped an issue with a CVDB that seems to have been deleted.  Script 
crashed.  Should probably do some object checking and if the object doesn't 
exist, prompt for re-searching (or at least warn object doesn't exist)

WHAT STEPS WILL REPRODUCE THIS PROBLEM? (Please include the exact name of
the eComic book that you were trying to scrape, if possible.)
1. Scrape a book with CVDB168663 (Action Comics 1000000, does not exist 
anymore)


WHAT VERSION OF COMICVINESCRAPER ARE YOU USING?
1.0.14


PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT MAY BE OF USE
error log:
scraping next eComic book: Action Comics, #1000000

Yes, this is a duplicate of issue 44, though I never considered the possibility 
of an
issue being removed from CV.   (You can get the same effect if you just change 
your
CVDB tag to something that doesn't exist, i.e. edit it by hand.)

I'll close issue 44 and keep this one open, since your bug report has more 
details.

Issue 44 has been merged into this issue.

I believe they clean up duplicate issues from time to time, so, theoretically, 
the 
better we get at identifying duplicate issues/volumes, the more the potential 
problem 
will grow :)

Thanks!

• Changed state: Accepted

Ok, this should be rare, but when it occurs, the script now falls back to the 
normal
behaviour (i.e. a search) that it does when it doesn't have a CVDB tag.

Fixed in 1.0.21
