On that last book, the "Number 3" indicates Wizard Ace #3 then? Or is it Strangers in Paradise #3? I can see how this one was tricky. If it's SiP 3, then isn't it listed as a variant under the wrong issue?

yes, it's Wizard ACE #3, but reprints SIP #1, so it's under the book number it reprints, which is probably what's stated in the indicia.

Moon Knight 1 facsimile

this one is weird, there are two different UPC numbers actually, according to what Dynamic Forces has on their page for it: https://www.dynamicforces.com/htmlfiles/p-C132063.html

theirs is UPC: 725130320636 . Marvel's version is 759606204137-00111.

the DF version shown has no barcode box, and blank box where the price should be, BUT, sometimes DF uses pre-production pics for their own stuff, even months after it's come out, and there's a bunch on e*** with that pic, but the search didn't match any for a dynamic forces version, even with 'search description'.

DF wants $80 ON SALE for a $4 reprint? ridiculous, even if the cover is slightly different. no one using the DF pic is selling it for more than the normal facsimile price range either, nor are sold ones outside the norm. will let the CPG officials decide if the DF pic is the correct production one, as CPG has the same UPC one for both listings, even tho the pic is not the same. mycomicshop does not have a DF edition, nor does comics.org. CGC doesn't have a dynamic forces variant graded, but has the other facsimile variants. so hard to know what's right, someone may have to email DF and ask if that pic is correct. hard to believe there'd be no graded copies, and I did search CGC for the 1980 series and 2022 series (2022 has this facsimile). No CGC copies on e*** with the DF cover except 1 that uses the raw pic, but the CGC pic is the same one CPG has, and nothing on the label says Dynamic Forces. Wondering if DF even made the book? they're not great at keeping their site up to date.


have fun...

found out that some Green Publications issues apparently don't exist.


https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/roly-poly-comics/6/ulwtkq

according to comics.org and the Mighty Crusaders site ( https://www.mightycrusaders.net/roly-poly-comics/ ), "Green Publishing did not number these comics sequentially. Issue #1 is “Roly Poly Comic Book”. There were no issues #2-#9. Starting with issue #10 the second issue published the title was changed to “Roly Poly Comics”. and no issue #13. was published. Issue #15 is also listed as Volume 2 #6, with no other issues in volume 2, however, it is literally the 6th comic out of 6 Roly Poly Comics published."

GCD says "Issues #2-5, 7-9, and 13 were never published," but they have a blank listing for #6, but #15 is the 6th issue published, so they have that as "Vol 2 #6 (15)", but #15 is on the cover. So the #6 listing can go bye-bye, right?


https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/cosmo-cat/3/pmtrnr . No #3 was published, according to comics.org: https://www.comics.org/series/15823/

Not listed anywhere is: Justice League Mini "Justice League Unstopable Forces #1 of 4 (a Free issue Given out By General Mills) file:///C:/Users/urmaj/Desktop/Screenshot_2.jpg

pic address does not work that way, you have to use the attach files button.

if you do an internet search (unstoppable has 2 P's) or a search at comics.org (bookmark that), you'll find the correct title (which may be on the inside too) is General Mills Presents Justice League. so CPG has those, and there's 9, at https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/general-mills-presents-justice-league/tmxpk
Unstoppables is at https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/general-mills-presents-justice-league/1/yivwov

It will/should also show up if you search just Justice League #1 and paw thru 400 results (I didn't feel like going thru 5 pages of that to confirm). And the hidden roundabout way that no one would figure out or think of is to click Genres under the Price Guide menu at the top, then click P in the alphabet, then Promotionals in the results, then G for General Mills. Promotionals should be added to the Comic Type list methinks, since some like this are not under Mini-Comics, and promos are hard to find exactly because of how they're named 'officially'. I don't consider Promotionals a genre myself, it's a TYPE, so thought these would be under Mini-Comics, but no, then saw the green promotionals button on the comic's listing and backtracked that to Genres.

here's the link to Promotionals, so bookmark that if you have more: https://comicspriceguide.com/genres/promotional/sc

there ya go.

it appears it's not listed. please read this post that's at the top of the forum and add whatever publishing and creator info you can to your 1st post (there's an edit button at the bottom of the message pane), that helps save CPG time. https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic8-guidelines--please-read-before-posting.aspx


I found a better pic and attached it for CPG to use.

when you've found the issue in your box, click it, and it should go to the CPG 'normal' listing, then there should be 3 buttons to the right of the title for 'sell', 'edit' and a red X icon for delete.

I submitted it using the 'report missing issue' link that's at the bottom right of the series listing page, so you can do them yourself too. pics need to be cropped to the edges, no watermarks, signed or graded copies. comics.org is a good place to find pics you can copy, they had a good pic of this one.

see my reply to your Mopsy post. attached a non-graded pic for cpg to use. according to comics.org, the creator info is:
Jack Sparling pencils and inks.
John Duffy letters
publication date 1952 one-shot, possible month april according to comics.org. cover price .10. Toby Press. Publisher is listed here, https://comicspriceguide.com/publishers/toby-press , but no title for Pin-Up Pete to add it to, so can't use the report missing issue function, so an admin can add it.

these are listed under 'Dynabrites' for the title, so they don't show up on normal title searches. Under Whitman for publisher they're under D. #11355 is the one you're looking for: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/dynabrites/11355A/slsxnq

Detective #1053 and Robin #163 have no creators to verify, been like that for a while, and it appears they've been done: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/detective-comics/1063/phvwctp

IDW's TMNT#121 B has no creators to verify, but only a couple have been approved. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles/121B/phuvnwr

so they're stuck on the verify list somehow.

they're missing the whole series, not just #4. Should be under this publisher: https://comicspriceguide.com/publishers/premier-magazines
also missing True Love Confessions.
comics.org has them: Nuts! (5 issues): https://www.comics.org/series/19782/

well, it's here and it's not. they have it under Its Alive (no apostrophe) for the publisher, but no pic: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/a-girl-and-her-dog/phsqmw
but the page says "There are no issues associated with this title," which I get all the time even tho whatever title has issues. It doesn't come up under its own name, using All Types and All Countries either. So a glitch to fix....

You need to choose 'annual' in the Comic Type drop down menu. just use Daredevil and issue #4, then choose Annual. Annuals are also listed under the main title and volume they go with, under the Annuals tab. Same with hardcovers, softcovers, trades etc.

all I'm going to do is show you where it is, the rest has been suggested before and some is not feasible.
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/true-believers-empyre----galactus/1/pkyriyx

ever try just 'empyre galactus" for the search? or 'true believers'? or true believers empyre (since there's several of those in the Empyre series)? always try fewer keywords, and look inside the comic at the publishing indicia to see the correct title.

and if I haven't posted this to you yet (it's posted a million other times):

it's under a search for Strange Academy #1, because that's the number on the cover. Same with all the other Trick or Reads, but they could add 'trick' or 'trick or read' to the search parameters for those issues, they do that sometimes. some are here for Exclusives, or that may be all of them, I dunno.: https://comicspriceguide.com/exclusives/trick-or-read/pkrt
