Titan is a UK publisher, so you have to use either UK in the Countries menu or All Countries. It's here:

not sure what info you're looking for. pictures or links to pics always help. the only 1976 #3 I find is at https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/six-million-dollar-man-the/3/pkxqc

other sites have more publishing info, so google is your friend.

Cross Vol. 1 TPB from Pronto Comics

I don't think CPG lists 'print-on-demand' or download only comics. They only have 2 titles by Pronto comics from 2010 and 11, so you could infer that they won't be adding any others if they're only printable online.

ok, but likely they printed copies themselves to sell there and when they do shows. Cross from Pronto is not listed on comicbookdatabase.com or comics.org or comicbookrealm etc. Only the ones from Dark Horse and Tokyo Pop are, so no one seems to consider Pronto's Cross a 'published' comic/TPB. Pronto points to indyplanet for the TPB and it's only a download or printout, so don't plan on CPG adding it. Perhaps ronbatman can confirm this if he sees this.

It's here, but no pic, but listed under just Anarky instead of Batman Anarky, because it reprints the Anarky mini-series. Always try fewer main keywords:

Missing - The Amazing Spider-man

FINALLY found it, under Power Records publisher listings. Dated as 1975 though, but has 2 reissues:
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/the-amazing-spider-man/2_soft%20cover/rkyyhp

1981 reissue: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/the-amazing-spider-man/2B/rkyyht . pic may be of the package, not of the comic.

the group listing for all: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/the-amazing-spider-man/shppi
Why it doesn't come up under searches for Amazing Spider-Man is beyond me, and I pawed thru a ton of listings. Time for someone to update the database.....

Adventures of Mutt and Jeff nn=Jan 1920

A picture or link to one would have helped, but I think this is it, according to what I found elsewhere: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/mutt-jeff/1/wlpwnx
It would appear the correct title is The Adventures of Mutt and Jeff, not just Mutt and Jeff as CPG has it.
Publisher is listed as Embee, and 1921, but the cover is the same as everyone else's listing for the 1920 Cupples & Leon edition, so not sure if it's a reprint or mistake or what. comics.org has more info: https://www.comics.org/issue/797753/ . They have the on sale date as Nov 1920, not January,

mycomicshop has both the Cupples 1920 listed and the Embee 1921 listed, but with no pic of the Embee one to compare. comics.org doesn't list the Embee one. a google search didn't find anything about the Embee one either (only 1 result with "Adventures of Mutt and Jeff" embee), other than mentions of them along with the Cupples version. Without the title in quotes there were more mentions, and 1 scholarly pdf that said Embee published 2 Mutt and Jeff books, but no pics there either.

So the CPG folks can have fun hammering out which/how they want to list it.

my mistake on the spelling of the publisher, had it right at first then changed it for some reason, so edited my post to correct that.

not sure why the discrepancy on the date, but I'm only going by what comics.org provides as proof. could be what's on the book was done well in advance of when it actually was published.

found a couple closed ones on ebay, here's a foreign result with inside pics from a US dealer, doesn't seem to show on US ebay now, copyright date 1920 in lower right corner, and I don't see any other dates:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-1920-Oversize-Bound-Volume-Aventuras-De-Mutt-E-Jeff-vespera-de-Natal-/112667311401?_ul=BR&nma=true&si=7NJ0iQ8KAW3iPOg9QmyCULGgE0Q%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

so the mystery is the Embee one that I can't find on google. but don't have more time to look, so will let CPG figure out why they have the embee one and not the cupples one.

Missing "Do You Pooh"

CPG seems to only have the 2012 Dead Pooh series, and nothing for Pooh under publisher Counterpoint. But if it's prices you need, 'that' auction site has a Pooh-load of them to look at, and I assume some comic shop sites or other such venues do too.

Missing detective comics DC

well, that makes all the difference. for future reference, 'soft covers' or softcovers always means trade paperbacks. you're looking for the monthly issues, aka 'regular series'. they're under the Vol 1 Detective Comics listing still, assuming those are the ones you're looking for? Issue #934, starting the 2016 'series' is on page 10 of that listing, on thru #986 cover date of Oct 2018 at end of page 11. So 984, 985, 986 are all on page 11. hope that helps.

how to recognize a variant

Doug, is this not it?: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/x-men-road-to-onslaught/1/phvqhw
mycomicshop has it also: https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=97711
'that' auction site has multiple sold copies from .99-$6, several other price guide sites have it too, so not sure why you couldn't find more about it. a google search for X Men Road to Onslaught 1996 turns up all kinds of results for it. leave out the colon when doing searches on CPG and other search engines, it sometimes messes with results.There's no value to it because its just a 'behind the scenes' look at how they came up with the story and various art stuff, so not really a comic.

didn't take me much time, as the comic showed up right off on a CPG search, and many results on google. I don't know why you couldn't find it on CPG tho.

for future reference, see my search tips on this thread: https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic12110-evil-ernie-youth-gone-wild-directors-cut.aspx

DC Giant comics from Walmart

"Sold exclusively in Walmart stores" probably means only IN Walmart stores, so not thru walmart.com or dccomics.com, so ya gotta schlep to the store and hope they have them. The DC site says nothing about a Wonder Woman one tho, and no search results for it.
"Each of the four titles – SUPERMAN GIANT, JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA GIANT, BATMAN GIANT and TEEN TITANS GIANT – will arrive in stores by July 1. Beginning in August, the Superman and Justice League titles will arrive in week one of each month, with the second pair, Batman and Teen Titans, arriving approximately two weeks later."
So the 2nd two should be in stores this week or next.

Missing: Squadron Supreme: New World Order

well it's here of course, as why would a 1998 Marvel not be listed by now? but, it's hidden under the Vol 1 1985-86 maxi-series for some reason, and titled Squadron Supreme #1 SPECIAL, which isn't helping anyone find it. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/squadron-supreme/1_special/pcxxct

So Ronbatman, could this be moved to it's own listing and titled Squadron Supreme: New World Order like everyone else has it? It seems to be an all new story, and WAY after the 1985 series, so no reason it should be buried with it.

Missing some True Believers

collectibleshop

look under the title without using 'true believers', they'll come up as variants and noted as 'True Believers edition' in the sub-titles. same tip I give everyone--use fewer keywords, try using the main name/title when it's some reprint or TPB etc., then start checking the year produced and looking for the right era/decade/year.
no idea why they're not listed with the rest of the True Believers issues, but they should be. guess different CPG people are entering them?
The hardest to find one was Phoenix, as it's hidden with X-Men Origins: Jean Grey. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/x-men-origins-jean-grey/unrrb
nothing under Phoenix or True Believers Phoenix where you think it would be. The True Believers edition should have been titled Jean Grey too, seeing as how it reprints X-Men Origins: Jean Grey. Way to confuse people Marvel.
