Are you adding comics names and dates from the inside covers? I have literally 50 to 100 books not in the database or under the publisher for certain comics. This is especially true when it comes to obscure Indy books. How would you like me to identify these book so they can be added??

Yeah, the fine print inside one of the covers is called the indicia. The title listed there is the official title. The one on the cover can sometimes be confusing or misleading.
There are a lot of recent indie (ie. Kickstarter) books that are not in the database, but most older ones should be.
Can you give an example of one you are looking for?

I'll help a little, but why did you make single posts for all those comics? and your links to gocollect send people to a login page, making them have to do a search from the home page.
It helps if you say what comic the ebay links go to, saves people time having to go there and wait for it to load.
many on your list are UK published issues, so change the Country drop-down to UK or All Countries and you'll find them, Transformers included. Marvel UK, Fleetway, Titan are all UK publishers.
Mr. Jigsaw Special is under the Special tab of the Mr. Jigsaw series. That's how CPG does many Specials. It's here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/mr-jigsaw/1special/yiyvox
Thor Goes Hollywood from 2011 probably isn't listed because it has no comic story, just covers. While CPG does list some poster books and the like, they mostly don't list stuff that doesn't have 50% comic story.
Some of those on your list that I checked are missing here, even tho they have others by those publishers. Read this post that at the top of this very forum to see how to report those, after you're sure they're not listed, and put them all in one post, with links to pics, or attach pics if you can. https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=8 . They go on the Database and Missing Issue forum.
Lastly, see this thread for my search tips (4th post down): https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=12110 .
https://comicspriceguide.com/faqs for a few How To answers about submitting missing images and reporting missing issues etc.
Watch CPG's 'How To' youtube videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3eOHtGDGIs0GGohUDuypf3TlQM2aupdo
that should save you lots of time and posts. Have fun..
