Continuing messages...Damaged Database
Manuel J. Galceran replied to Manuel J. Galceran's topic in Tech Support
Steven, thank you. I tried the first option that you suggested and after a lot of anxiety it worked. For the first time in almost a month the database is working without any error messages and I was able to perform the latest update. THANKS AGAIN!!! -
Manuel J. Galceran started following King Thor Variant 1/C- Wrong Picture , Continuing messages...Damaged Database , Error in upload of a current Update and 7 others

First off, I want to thank Mark who helped me within the past week to get to the point where we could manage my existing database to update it with the latest build and also to change the name to avoid errors moving forward. Unfortunately, today I attempted to load the latest update, to match the collection to latest guide (and selling) values. As luck would have it, as it moved forward I ONCE AGAIN received the message that the database was damaged and I chose not to try to recover it. At this point I do not know what else to do. In reality, what is the point of my adding inventory (now sitting at 300+ books to be input) if I can't be sure that the database is working properly. To all who see this, any and all advice will be most welcome. Thank you!!!

In attempting to upload an update today at 11:17 AM EST, the process appeared to begin but within 5-7 seconds the following appeared. Please let me know how this can be fixed. Here are the details:

I recently obtained a variant comic that indicates that it is an exclusive Aaron Bartling homage variant cover presented by Whatnot. The UPC is 76194137788900131 . However, and unless this is pending to be added to the database, I have not been able to locate this. There are plenty of copies available on eBay, so I am hoping that someone might be familiar as to where this actually appears in CB. Hoping that someone can help. Thanks!

I recently attempted to update the "Artist" and "Cover Artist" fields for Gabriele Dell'Otto and Riccardo Federici for which I had noted there are numerous issues where their names were not spelled correctly. After selecting "Replace All", I did not receive any response that the actions had been completed. In then going back to check some of the issues, I noticed that the incorrect spellings were still there. Can someone tell me if this actually works, and if so, am I supposed to receive some sort of notification that the process has been completed? Otherwise, please have someone update the databased with the correct spellings for these two artists. Thank you!

Marvel Italian Comics (Panini)
Manuel J. Galceran replied to Manuel J. Galceran's topic in Content and Corrections
Mark, the indicia is in Italian and the text itself is almost microscopic...I wish that I could provide more but I also thought that since there are listings in CB for Panini that maybe someone other than myself had/has actually come across these in the past. By the way, and for example, if there are Marvel reprints from other countries (such as Patrulla X (X-Men) from Spain) would these be listed under the regular title(s) or someplace else? -
I would like to find out if anyone has seen the comic books that I am including as attachments. I bought these sometime during 2021 from an eBay seller located in Italy. The first contains content and artwork from the Mighty Thor Series and includes a Loki back-up story. The other appears to be for Avengers Stand-Off and also includes a back-up story. The issues are card stock in nature and each has an embossed front cover. Just trying to figure out if 1) They might already exist in the CB database and 2) If not, would I able able to add them (of course, I would also appreciate some advice as to how to determine the actual publisher, correct title / issue numbers to create, etc.). Thank you!

I was updating my inventory tonight and came across this title. I noticed that listed are issues 7 & 8 with their respective covers and UPC's. I don't have these, so I searched for both in eBay, Google, Wikipedia, Amazon, etc. Seems like they may have never been published because they were nowhere to be found. Can someone please confirm if this is accurate? Thank you!

Mark, I have to disagree with what is happening here. I clicked on the link that you provided for all Action Comics 100 variants thinking that their source was Atomic Avenue. However, I have already run across the following: 1000 Variation V lists Midtown Comics Variant Cover by Olivier Coipel (in CB, the same is listed as V33) and, 1000 Variations O, P list Forbidden Planet Variant Covers (regular & virgin) by Jock (yet neither one even appears in CB) So what is the problem here now? And YES, I have the current version of CB with all content updated through today...

I am having serious issues with the new format that was employed a few months back. For example, I have 25 different copies of Action Comics 1000 that in following the old format I was adding newer variants using the 1000/A-2, 3, 4, 5, etc. format. Now all of these seem to follow the new format of 1000/V2, 3, 4, 5, etc. format. So what are the problems? First, the 'V' format for Action Comics starts at V29 so all of those that I have in the single and teen digits do not even appear. Second, and even if they did, how would I go about adding/changing them to the new format without having to do so one by one? AND if this helps anyone figure this out here is a complete list of the ones that I have in stock (cover artist is mentioned): A-2, RUDE, A-3, M. CHO, A-4, GIBBONS, A-5, ALLRED, A-6, STERANKO, A-7, MIDDLETON, A-8, JURGENS, A-9, BERMEJO, A-11, DELL'OTTO, A-13, G.PEREZ, A-16, LAU, A-18, DANIEL, A-20, N. SCOTT, A-21, COIPEL, A-22, MATTINA, A-27, GLEASON, A-29, KIRKHAM, A-31, FABOK, A-34, N. ADAMS, A-36 JURGENS and A-38, MAHNKE. One final note. I have some many other titles that I have this same problem with that it isn't even funny. The format issue from old to new is rampant. Can't anyone come up with a fix for this so that changes don't have to be addressed one by one?

Please note that I ran into several issues that are listed towards the end of the series that do not appear to be in the right place. These include 700, 700/A, 701, 701/A, 702 and 702/A. I had all of these marked as in stock but then also found them listed under The Mighty Thor (2011-12, 2017-2018). I transferred them over to that series but please consider updating the database for the original series so that they no longer appear in that series.

Please note that when I clicked on this issue, the picture that appears is for a copy of the series Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda. I was able to delete it using the Show Pictures Folder but when I went back and tried to download the cover, the same one shows up again (and yes, my version of CB is current with no new updates available at this time). Please advise.
