NICK FURY, AGENT OF S.H.I.E.L.D. #1


The issue in the database is incorrectly listed as Volume #1. It should be Volume 2, Issue 1

West Coast Avengers West Coast Volume Issue #47

Hi there!

Issue #47, located here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/avengers-west-coast/47/wiuqk and https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/avengers-west-coast/47B/pkytisv

While the cover title is "Avengers West Coast", this is actually the last issue of "West Coast Avengers". (Volume 2)


Issue #48 is the switch in both the Title and the Indicia. Discussed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Coast_Avengers

Attached a snap of the Indicia.

So... issue #47 needs to be moved to be West Coast Avengers Vol 2

Thanks!

Cloak and Dagger Mini #4

Hi there. I'm experiencing a problem when working with Cloak and Dagger #4 Limited Series 1983 (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/cloak-and-dagger/4/posti)

The Values/Variants/MyCollection Tabs are blank of info and functions. However, if you navigate to the Details tab, all four tabs of info/functions are combined there. This happens with and without issues attached, on Safari and Chrome, and iOS web/MAC. The iOS app seems to be fine.

I've attached files screenshots of the issue.

Thanks for checking it out.

I believe the wrong cover is uploaded for What If...? Vol 2 #4 Direct, located here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/what-if/4/poxrj

The cover uploaded is the Marvel Vintage Pack edition.

I added a personal cover to the #4 listing, and have also added to this post (looks odd here)

Thanks for checking it out,
David

No main/base issue for Spectacular Spider-Man #125

Casper0312
Hi again, as I was going through my Spider-Mans, I noticed I could neither easily move from Spectacular Spider-Man #124 to #125 NOR from #126 to #125. It seemed like #125 (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/spectacular-spider-man/125B/yoyrh) was missing from the database. On issue specific search, though, you can pull up issue #125B and #125C. Pretty sure that since there isn’t a base issue #125, it is causing the issue.

Also, the covers are reversed... Direct is on Newsstand and vis a vi.

Thanks so much for looking into it.

I don’t think this is correct. Last week I had lots of updates highlighted in Gains/Losses for X-Men 142-157, varying Raw 8.5-9.6.

I thought switching to UK in the country search would find it, but it didn't pop until I changed the search to include "All Countries"

Glad someone posted on this. I thought it was a result of me switching to Chrome Beta. I do also generally have success if I click on the image a couple of times. It definitely slows down some of the verifications. I would guess the site is getting hit with a scraper or something this is keeping I/O busy, though haven't seen images impacted like this. Seems to be a common thing on the weekends when there are fewer admins to beat them back.

Guess I will have to do some of things I;ve been avoiding now. ;-)

Personally I would like to see a 'pending' list of variant submissions so we know that our request hasn't disappeared.
Any chance of adding this functionality?
Also what happened to 'Database and Missing Issue Discussion' submissions on the Forum being moved to 'Completed' once done? They don't seem to get moved anymore
Cheers

This actually would be great. Right now I have a "box" for variant submissions. Once the variant makes its way to Production, I move the entry to the newly correct variant and out of that box. Generally, I have an 80+% hit rate where the variant is approved the same week it is entered. The final five I just rescan and resubmit each month because I just assume I've botched the submission or scan in some way. The pending status would be incredibly helpful. Now I have to wonder and likely hang my head in shame because the submissions probably didn't get denied or botched. LIkely are just pending. Adding those duplicates likely adds delay for everyone.

I HAVE gotten direct feedback on some botched variant submissions. Thank you so much @Jesse (OHS69GRAD) for your patience and guidance over the past many months. Those are great and sometimes even I have no idea what the hell I was trying to submit in the wee hours of the morning. Getting that feedback helped me improve and come up to speed on some of the naming, numbering, cover scan best practices and pitfalls.

If this isn't possible, what is a reasonable time to wait before resubmitting? One month, three months, more? Honestly don't mind waiting as long as there is some sort of guidance on when to resubmit.

Thank you to the admins for all the work put into this baby,

Dave

Just a note, one of my last five variants appeared today. Super popular Visionaries #2.
Patience everyone... they will make it to the list eventually.

I have to say it was fun during this first covid round and wonder why I grabbed some of these titles.
They crack me up.

Again, thanks for all the work.

I get the same issue. There is an error firing in the dev tools with a message to alert the admins. I think it is because there are over 1000 updates in that letter causing it to fail to render the pages, but who knows.

Tasky,

If you have a suggestion for the guy, then I'd suggest you constructively give it.
I'm not sure I understand what has you annoyed, but am going to assume he posted two high point updates almost a month apart?
This is supposed to be the Market Watch forum... and he is certainly watching this issue.

I wasn't able to jump from Avengers West Coast #67 to #68, it was only allowing a jump to #69. Going to the general title search I noticed that both the Newsstand and Direct editions are labeled as #68B


Can you please correct this?
Thank you as always,

If you go back to the verification that you noped, the points will show negative in red or positive green. Clicking on the point value will give a history of yes/no on the information. Your evaluations will have a little trashcan to the right. If you would like to reverse your nope, click the trashcan and it will be as if you never did the eval. You can then refresh the page and redo your verification

Happy Sunday everyone!

Running through the verifications I noticed the following creators need to be merged:

Laura Martin
https://comicspriceguide.com/creators/laura-martin

and

Laura DePuy
https://comicspriceguide.com/creators/laura-depuy

The wiki is located here with her current last name of Martin, born as DePuy:

Note, as of this writing there are pending creator verifications under both names in the Wildstorm->Plaenary series.

Thanks as always,

I just refreshed my comic collection page and noticed that my collection value increased by $10. I checked the Gains/Losses in my profile, but there is nothing listed. How do I find out which of my comic books have changed in value?



I find the Gains/Losses popup is sporadic in showing movement. Usually, this seems to be because the update was just added to the database. I say this because jumping to the Values Update screen from the Gains/Losses will show the updates on that first page.

On the flip side, I don't often enter new books anymore so I will see lots of updates on the gains/losses popup, but my value stays the same week after week after week. I found the value does not update until you actually access your collection. So once a week I will just jump to my collection and then you just have to click on a publisher and BAM! your value will update at the top of the screen.

When I am super busy and don't access the site for a while, I might not see an update showing in the Gains/Losses because it expired. Like you, if I go to my collection and select a publisher or maybe add a new issue, the value is recalculated and I am left wondering where that extra $$ came from.

Just some of my observations and hope one matches for you.
