forgot about this thread, but still haven't heard from the publisher, as usual these days. why do they all have email/contact forms on their sites but never reply?
the OP hasn't returned with an indicia pic either.

well, they don't have #1-6 either after all these years. comics.org lists it, as does mycomicshop, but only 1-6.
publisher's site doesn't even show #7, but other sites have it and it's on e***, so it exists.

publisher's site for CPG to get pics and info for the 6 issues they show: http://www.numidianforce.com/Page10.html
info for #7 from hipcomic:
Item: Numidian Force #7
Publisher: Kamite
Cover Date: April 1995
Writer: James E. Brunson, Keith Anderson
Artist: Peter Casso
Cover Artist: Mark D. Bright
Storylines: The Mystery Of Umoja!

couldn't find any good pics of #7 without watermarks, so if you have 1 and can scan it or take a good square-on pic and crop it to the edges, and edit the size so it's not huge (try to get it down to 350-400 pixels wide, and there's lots of free online editing programs you can use to do that), you can attach to a post and some admin will get to adding the series at some point.

and for future reference, it's always helpful to attach a pic or a link to one, and identify WHICH Comic Con, as there's multiples that use comic con in their name.

and this is the wrong forum too, you want the 1 above this, as this is for completed issues. you want https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topics.aspx?ForumID=15

New Title: We Go Anywhere

in case you missed it cuz it's so hard to see, your pic has the mycomicshop watermark. mycomicshop is the only site I see it on, they claim to have 1 for sale, but most other references I found said it was published online. one article for a Utah comic con on the creator said:
"Lovins has been publishing his sci-fi comic “We Go Anywhere” for a few years, alongside inker Glen Moore. All of the issues of this comic are online, and he sold printed copies at his booth in Artist Alley at FanX. Lovins said, at some point he’ll collect them all into one book, known in the industry as a “trade.” Lovins’ comics can be found online on Facebook and on Webtoons.com"

https://usustatesman.com/meet-a-usu-alumnus-making-comics-mike-lovins/ from 2021

another interview said "Gavin: What was it like for you making the series and what made you decide to go digital rather than print?
Mike: I enjoy working for clients, but nothing is more gratifying than working on something you own. It was a long haul because I wanted to have the first arc done before putting it out there. I went digital out of necessity but also because of the stipulations Diamond owns the Direct Market.
https://www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/2014/09/09/profiled-mike-lovins-and-we-go-anywhere/ from 2014, so before the 2018 date.

so sounds like the few printed copies out there were done for con handouts. I found a couple non-watermarked pics, but they differ in details, so no idea if either is a published version. my guess is it doesn't qualify for inclusion due to no real worthwhile production numbers or distribution, but up to some admin.

I think you mean Marvel COMICS Presents. Flip them over to see the other cover. CPG doesn't show both.

it's 'starred' on the price notation at $199.99, so it's under review. always helpful to post a link to the item too.

this has been requested multiple times, and maybe someday they'll get to it, but so far, nope. see this thread from last year: https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic16535-collection-features.aspx

and this thread from 2018, will tell you that your Display Case will list the top 48 value comics, if you're a paying member: https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic12743-viewing-your-collection-values.aspx

otherwise there's using some excel spread sheet thing you make yourself. see these threads:

newkadia has a 'print chart' link (which I haven't fully tried, so don't know what it looks like printed out), so there should be no copyright infringement to use it in books you're selling. dunno if it has NewKadia printed on it, but if so, and you don't change that to another company name, there should be no problem in using it. Or make your own, if you have the computer skills. or try asking on the CGC forums, they have lots of sellers there skilled in all kinds of stuff, and more likely to know of some other charts.
Comics General would be the place to ask: https://boards.cgccomics.com/forum/8-comics-general/

good luck.

that would be writer and artist Howard Chaykin, although he left off the Howard part, but that's how he signs his last name, with all those loops. you can google his sig and find examples.

I figured maybe they were later printings and listed under the earlier ones, but most are missing pics, so hard to know.
mycomicshop and comics.org both list them separately from the 1990s tpbs, and MCS calls them Vol 3, 1st prints. more info at MCS than comics.org: https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?SeriesID=37446500

wingsforweapons can you post the indicia for these titles so Ron and the gang can put them in the system correctly


I apologize but what is the indicia?

well, you could look it up on a search engine, but the indicia is the publishing info usually found on the bottom of the inside 1st page or so, or back page. It's a paragraph that will state the printing date, publisher and the correct title, which in regular comic books, may not match the cover title exactly, but it's what CPG uses to list stuff.
in this case it should state whether these are beyond 1st prints, or are noted as Vol. 3 first print etc.. Sometimes the only notation for the printing is a row of 1-10 numbers, and the first number that shows is the printing for that issue, like if it starts with #2 and no #1, it's the 2nd print. so a pic of the indicia will help determine how CPG will list them and where.

TPBs are listed under the Trade Paper Back tab for the series they go with. the TMNT Random House one is here:
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-adventures/1_trade%20paper%20back/snvynt

Showcase is just Showcase for the title, #98 is here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/showcase/98/yjtqb

CPG only has a couple of the UK price Howard the Ducks, so covers for the rest can be found on comics.org for someone to add: https://www.comics.org/series/2347/covers/
and for future reference, comics.org is a better resource to find pics and link to than all over the internet, but they also don't have everything, but pretty close.

The Power & Glory tpb isn't listed, so cover pic attached.

always try fewer keywords. many times the cover title is not the 'real' title listed inside, which is what CPG goes by.

there's no typical timeline to get stuff added. it's whenever an admin has the time and checks the posts. could be today, could be days from now. if you'll read some of the posts that have replies from Ronbatman and Casper0312, you can see when the post started and when they added the issues. don't push 'em, they're pretty busy all the time just keeping up with the newly released stuff.

which volume and variants? please always post a link to the series in question, it saves lots of time, especially when there's lots of a character's series. and post links to pics or attach them if you own them. comics.org is a good place to find pics or link to them.
