I’m very grateful to this website and use it regularly.My one complaint is finding comics under their title as printed in the indica.I tried Marvel’s Greatest Comics featuring the Fantastic 4,Marvel’s Greatest Comics,Marvel’s Greatest, Marvel Collector Item Classics etc.Why is so difficult to guess what it’s listed under?Why not use the title as listed in the indica?You know, the same advice you give folks?Why, oh why, does this continue to happen?I hate posting these WHAT IS IT LISTED AS ,and feeling like a Moran for being unable to guess what it’s listed as. Thanks so much for being here,please consider the indica way!
Marvels Greatest Comics featuring the Fantastic Four #30 is the book I’m looking for!
Thanks again!

it's possibly the killer apostrophe thing. 1st time I tried it with the apostrophe, it came up with nothing. Without it (Marvels) it came up. Then tried again with the apostrophe and it came up. So weird. In the case of apostrophes, leave them out if something doesn't come up. You can also leave the word with the apostrophe out and use just the other words, although that may get tons of results depending on the title. 'Greatest Comics' works fine, not too many results to scroll down.
The search engine and title data is not perfect here, and misspelled titles are still being found, but there's SO many variations and easy ways to misspell something or forget an apostrophe, you can understand the mistakes. See this thread for my search tips (4th post down): https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic12110-evil-ernie-youth-gone-wild-directors-cut.aspx

First off,THANK YOU!But.......I’m an old man, been a collector all my life.I tried every possible possibility.Something in my (or who knows what) computer was not spitting out the answer.I hate asking for help, especially when the solution is RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! That means correct spelling,correct abbreviations, guesses that are logical, you know, the whole enchilada. So, thanks again,sometimes we depend on computers to be up and ready to go ,with the answers we seek.Not yet,but someday.........maybe.......
