That's the source of your problem.
Different systems use differing rules for handling alphanumeric sorting. Calibre tends to use a system that evaluates the numeric characters as a number whereas most systems use a strict alphanumeric sorting. Hence, "aaa 2 aa" comes after "aaa 10 aa" since "1" comes before "2".
These solution would be to use leading zeros, numbering from "01" to "28".
Personally, I prefer not to alter the title in calibre. Instead, I use a Plugboard (in Prefs) to prefix the title with the series info during the Save to Disk action.
