I updated (Nubia and The Amazons #1) for you.
The other "as mentioned" aren't in the database yet. Give us a shout-out when they are added & I'll get them done..

Thanks. I might have mislead a bit on that one. They aren't a team known as "The New Amazons", it's just a new batch of Amazons.

As a non-paying member, this website is pretty useless.



A free membership gives you access to the catalog, price guide, hot books, blog posts, forum, buy/sell.
You can contribute by adding new books (via the forum), variants, cover prices, creators, barcodes.
Sure, you can't track your entire collection on here. Oh, and you don't get a forum pic.
But if those are the only things that matter to you, you've got some strange standards.

Tiny Onion Substack Day One Subscribers

Did anyone else sign up for the paid subscription for James Tynion IV's substack on the first day?
Anyone who did got a free comic from his warehouse stash.
I just got mine in the mail today, and wow. I am not disappointed.
I got a signed copy of the Tiny Onion Studios Exclusive Jenny Frisson Foil Variant (limited to 75) of Department of Truth #1! There's one small crease on the spine, so I put this beauty at a 9.6. Still, the guide puts it at $272 in that condition. Not bad for a $75 investment.

Flipping through a recently purchased copy of Marvel Tales 124 (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/marvel-tales/124/phqvksw).
Beside the obvious reprint of ASM 147, it also has a reprint of the origin of Black Bolt from Thor 148 (not the entire issue, just the origin story part).

X-Men Vol 2 205 - Incorrect Published Date

The database has an incorrect published date for X-Men Vol 2 205 2nd Print (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/x-men/205-2nd/wkvucq).
The system shows November 2001.
It should be January 2008.

Also, this appears to be the only variant that doesn't have the "1st Hope Summers" note.

Thanks again. I suppose it didn't even register in my brain that the second printing is technically a reprint of the 1st appearance.

@collectibleshop - Nice. Love the look of pure hatred in that squid's eyes, lol.

@Defiant1 - The first episode is pretty slow. Keep watching. You won't be disappointed.

This is the closes thread to what I want to say I copied the cover picture of every comic i own and put them on a price list in word,and now they all disappeared(I have a big red x instead of a photo, and i have to cut that and just put the titles. If you did that on purpose to protect the copy rights of the comic books,i think that is retarded, now i have double the work.



That really sounds like a "you" problem, not a site problem.
You said you copied the pictures. I'm assuming you mean you downloaded them? So they are on your computer, not linking to the image on the site.
Have you checked for updates for Word? Or Windows in general? When was the last time you restarted your computer? All of those could play parts in why images you downloaded in a document you own are no longer showing.

Or, you know, you could search the internet.

I've seen the first three episodes. I really enjoy it too. None of the out there stuff like Wandavision or Loki. Just good old action.

Didn't know much about Kate before this either. She's a privileged rich kid who decides to save the world by shooting arrows. Feels familiar somehow *cough* Oliver Queen *cough*.

Agreed. I could have done without that. And as far as a setup for next season, it wasn't very enticing. Not very cliff hangery.

Just watched the last episode. I think I enjoyed this one the most. The fight scenes were a lot of fun. All in all, it was a good way to end things too.
I was a bit disappointed with the end credit scene though. I was hoping for the usual "what? no way!" sort of thing. Not... that.

Huh. Didn't realize he was an actual character (Swordsman). Maybe we'll see him don the garb in something in the future along with his former partner (I'm guessing that's the cameo you were hoping for).

Me thinks you're right. According to comicvine, he was in 7 issues of Omega Men, all published before 1988 when Justice League International 18 came out.

Looks like the Joker War story arc isn't in the db.
No rush. I just really enjoyed the story. It was a pretty big arc so I thought it should be included.

This definitely helps for older titles or books with multiple variants. For instance, if you search for 'batman 1', there are almost 2000 hits. But by using the UPC, the exact book you are looking for comes right up.
