@Mark J. Castaneda I ran a Collection overview for books, magazines, and comics, and none of them display cover images, however, the auto-generated collection overviews for all three categories display cover images. I also ran item checklists of series I own with "items in my collection " checked for all three categories and they also do not have any cover images when looking at the reports under My Comics. However the cover images do appear if you do preview of the report.

@Andrew d’Entremont Outside of the 'Collection Report' style, are you noticing any other report style with similar cover problems?

OK. I only had the cover to go by. Isn't it fun when the cover and indicia don't match?

I just ran a collection report for comics and I am also getting covers. It's only Books and Magazines that won't display covers when running a report and using the Save to Web function.

amazon links should not be there. will remove

that stuff shouldn't be there... someone got past our gargoyles and must have slipped them in through a user submission. Will remove

the indicia of Land Left Behind has no word 'The' in it.

Weird... i'm able to get covers with a Collection Report for Comic Books but not Magazines. Can you confirm @Andrew d’Entremont the same result on your end?

Can you screenshot (or email us at support@comicbase.com) what you're referring to? We're having a hard time visualizing what you're seeing.

I would like to suggest in between raw grade selections. I know its customizable and I can add them to myself, but I'd wouldn't mind seeing these as a standard. GD/VG VG/FN FN/VF Or perhaps a little more granular. GD- GD+ VG- VG+ FN- FN+ VF- VF+ Thanks for the consideration.

Sure thing. The search function can be rather unforgiving compared to something like Google.

Well as Homer would say "DOH!" Thanks

Another new addition is Complete Hate, which should technically be Complete Hate, The. From Gum Wrappers to Richie Rich should be categorized under Books, not Comic Books. Land Left Behind should most likely be Land Left Behind, The. The word "of" should not be capitalized in the title Legion Of Oakley. Following ComicBase convention, Stan Mack's Real Life Funnies should be Real Life Funnies (Stan Mack's...).

It might be because the title is actually Comics Buyer's Guide (note the "s" in "Comics"), so if you search for Comic Buyer's Guide (without an "s"), you'll come up empty.

I added a magazine Title of "Comic Buyer's Guide Annual" even though there was a title "Comic Buyer's Guide" (I did not see that the annuals were is the database so I looked at the indices and added it. Support is saying that the annuals should be in the Title "Comic Buyer's Guide".but I no longer see that title when I look. I have downloaded the current weekly upgrade and the title still is not there. Is there a special way to get this title to download? Thanks

Orders for The Darques: Soulside one-shot have been cancelled, with apparently no plans to re-solicit. The title should be removed from the database.

This week's update added the title Legend of the Five Ring: Poster Book. Based on the cover, that should actually be Legend of the Five Rings: Poster Book . Also added was the Book title Classic Marvel Super Heroes (Barnes & Noble). This is apparently a trade paperback written by Peter Sanderson, released in 2005. There also exists in the database a book title Classic Marvel Super Heroes. According to the CB database, this was also written by Peter Sanderson and published in 2005, but it is a hardcover and is listed under a different publisher. I suspect that these two books are the same thing, just different format (hc vs. tpb). Does it make more sense to keep them as separate titles in the database or to put them together under a single title? My preference would be the latter, but YMMV.

Also, it looks like creator names have been appended to the storyline titles for Abyss #1. AFAIK this hasn't been done before. @Mark J. Castaneda @Peter Bickford Is this a new editorial policy?

This update added the comic title Cottage Classics: Their Makers* & The Making. I see that there is a link to an Amazon product listing in the title description. Is that intentional? There is also an outside link in the title description for Das Kampf. Again, is this intentional? @Mark J. Castaneda @Peter Bickford Is there an official editorial policy regarding links to places outside of ComicBase and Atomic Avenue within the title descriptions?

Called Tech Support and was asked to try resetting value history, which seemed to help but created a new problem... I have no enduring value history anymore. Every time I start up CB and look at my value history there is none -- the farthest back I can go is that day. Did I accidentally turn something off?

I just noticed that ID labels are printing titles much bigger now when space allows for it. That's a great little update. Thanks! And just out of curiosity, how hard would it be to add a few new fields to the ID label? One I'd really like to see is the cover date.

I don’t think this is the same situation I have. The auto-generated report for magazines lists everything I own and there is a cover image for every item. However, if I run the exact same report myself and use the save to web function, not one single picture is displayed.

Here is what I am seeing (in reports generated in CB). If the first issue in the list for a title has a cover it is displayed. If the first issue in the list for a title does not have a cover it is not displayed. Examples (see attached): My Collection Overview report showing the first title with a cover (issue MMPB and the second title without a cover (issue TPB). (1st attachment) First Title in report showing issues MMPB and MMPB-11 where the first issue (MMPB)) is displayed for owned issues MMPB. (2nd attachment) Second Title in report showing issues HC and TPB where the first issue (HC) doesn't have a cover so owned issue TPB does NOT display a cover. (2nd attachment) I have spot-checked several titles where covers are displayed in the report (always has a cover for the first issue of the title) and covers are not displayed always does NOT have a cover for the first issue in the title). Additionally, If the first issues does have an issue but it is not owned, that first cover is displayed for a latter issues what is not the one for that latter issue. (see 4th attachment). The issue with the RED arrow (which is the first issue in that title) is the one used in the Report but the actual issue in the report is the one with the GREEN arrow).

Here's what a report for Magazines looks like:
