Take a look at grouped search terms (preferences -> searching). These allow you to create virtual columns that contain the union of the values in the underlying columns.
The idea: assuming that the series are not hierarchical, create 2 or more series columns. Use these columns to assign all the necessary series to a book. It would be best to be consistent, using the same column for a given series. Now create a grouped search term that "contains" all the series columns. Use this term for searching, and calibre will automatically search across all the underlying columns. "Make user categories" for the grouped search term if you want to be able to search the term from the tag browser.
