This isn't the right way for someone new to the site to get things done. Especially when we've added tons of The Last Ronin 5 issues for you specifically. Now you're posting negative comments all over the forum. We are a community of people working on adding thousands and thousands of books each year, 300 to 400 every week. No other price guide has even half of the books we have.

So, this is the correct way to get things done. Submit a missing variant with a good scan, just the book no background stuff. Be patient while we research your books and the hundreds of thousands of other members' books. I hope that helps you.

Cannot find
Treasury Sized Batman VS The Incredible Hulk #27 Fall 1981
Looks just like the ones listed only this has the red dc and marvel present(like the 1982 version) and it has a black $2.50 in the upper right hand corner( the 1990's version is $2.95) and the cover has the bottom right hand extras on the cover(like the 1990's version) and this is an oversized comic book. On the inside it states volume 5 issue 27. The other two listed state its #1.


anyway, the comic's actual series title is DC Special Series, #27, it's here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/dc-special-series/27/tjsuk

always check inside for what the indicia says for the title. Both the Marvel and DC Treasuries are weird like that.

Hello, first post here.

As my user name suggests I am at an Oxfam charity, we sometimes get lots of comics in and currently i am looking for:

There may be more later but this would help me for now.

That title is The Titans, not Tifans. Published by Marvel UK, so it's under the country UK in the country dropdown menu. If you just need values, it's here:

The Dc Treasury books can be tricky as well.

try searching for "Famous First Editions" by typing "famous first" or "famous edition" into the search engine.

see: http://comicspriceguide.com/collection/dc/famous-first-edition-treasury-size/wkuy#_pricing

Also what I think you're after may be here: http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/superman-vs-muhammad-ali/thwsi

although this looks like it may be a newer reprint or the older one is correct but has the wrong date?
The value seems to be correct and maybe the facsimile edition was 2010?
no I just saw the deluxe edition bubble on the cover this is a newer and correct listing.

found by searching "vs superman" in the engine.


Also for some other dc treasury stuff:

Another example of how difficult it can be to find Disney Comics. Its under the title "Huey, Dewey & Louie Junior Woodchucks" & not Walt Disney. Here is the link, Scroll down to #6 http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/huey-dewey-louie-junior-woodchucks-gold-key-w/pkrpn.

I think this is Your "The Vault of Horror #4" its a Gladstone re-print. http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/vault-of-horror-the/xlvv

I remember these, I have issue 3. They were great. Here is your "Super Heroes Megazine # 1" http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/marvel-super-heroes-megazine/rjuw. Almost sure these came poly-bagged too (might be wrong).

Check the indicia for the proper title

Sometimes, a comic will have something different written on the cover than it's actual title. Take this one for example:



It's actually Amazing Spider-Man #434 with a fancy variant cover

http://comicspriceguide.com/collection/marvel/amazing-spider-man/434A/pbqybt

But when you check the indicia, you will see the actual title and number. Every comic will have an indicia somewhere inside, and while more recent issues have hidden it in strange places, like on the side of the news page, the vast majority of comics will have the indicia at the bottom of the first, second or last page. If you still aren't sure check out this link here for more information on the indicia:

http://www.comicconnect.com/load_page.php?page=faqtitle

There will be the occasional issue that doesn't match the indicia, but these are very rare, usually stemming from a title that changed part way through the run of the series, like Uncanny X-Men (more on that later)

Annuals, Giant-Sized and Trade Paperbacks

These can be tricky to find. If you type in "Batman Annual" in the title, you won't find what you are looking for. That's because annuals and other such issues are listed with their main series. Let's use Amazing Spider-Man again.



To get to the Annual or Giant Size issues, you just click on the appropriate button at the top (by the MS Paint arrows). If you want to try and search for the individual issue, jut search as normal, without the word annual.

Comics not published in the United States

Many great issues in all of our collections were published in countries around the world. Canadian Spider-Man one shots, UK editions of Fantastic Four, Spanish language reprints.... the list goes on. But for simplicity, the search function defaults to issues published in the United States only. So, if you can't find the issue you are looking for, try expanding your search to the entire world. Like this:



If you know what country the comic was published in, you can always choose it from the drop down menu, or you can choose "All Countries" and you'll see everything published around the world.

A few more tips

So you've tried all these and the issue still isn't coming up? First, try simplifying your search. Instead of typing in "THE Amazing Spider-Man" try just "Amazing Spider-Man" or "Amazing Spider Man." The database can have issues with little words, so sticking to the main words in the title usually yields better results. The same thing goes for punctuation.

Now, there are a few series that just don't fit with any rules. I mentioned "Uncanny X-Men" above, since the early issues were just called "X-Men." In the 70's the series was occasionally titled "Uncanny X-Men" but the change didn't become official until the early 80's. As a result, almost every guide puts the series together in a single run as opposed to splitting it up. CPG has chosen to list the early issues as Uncanny X-Men as opposed to X-Men. But if you search for X-Men #39, Uncanny X-Men #39 will come up as well, so you will get what you are looking for.

There are a few series that will still be confusing if you followed all these tips, though. Marvel Premiere, 1st Issue Special and others will usually be sorted out by checking the indicia, but there are other series that have strange indicia which will point you in the right direction, but not get you there. Like this one:

http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/dc-special-series/uox

The indicia for each issue will say what's on the cover. Issue #2 actually lists "The Original Swamp Thing Saga" in the indicia along side "DC Special Series #2." You can always try stripping words out of the title, but these strange exceptions can be really tricky. Fortunately, there are a lot of experienced collectors on the site that can help you find the issues that you are looking for. If the issue you posting is actually missing, usually someone will come along with a link to the issue or series that you are looking for. This forum would be the best place to ask for help:
