Version 2.0.4
-
I was scanning some comics with the mobile app, and when I entered the Cost (in this case, $2.09) it would not accept the "0" digit. When I entered "2.0", the app does not register the "0", backspaces and deletes the "." The entry that should be 2.09 becomes 29.

Two enter... One Leaves!

Round TWO! In this corner, we have Trogs, by FantaCo (2020) and the challenger: Trogs (American Mythology) These are the same book. Originally to be published by FantaCo last year, it fell victim to Covid-related circumstances. Then, it was picked up by American Mythology. There may have also have been a small run, independently published by the writer/artist Richard Bonk. I'm looking into that. Winner: Trogs (American Mythology). Delete the FantaCo Title. -
In the FIND list, I found Cimmerian Queen of the Black Coast, The and Cimmerian, The: Queen of the Black Coast, both of which direct back to the same Atomic Avenue page. The second one (Cimmerian, The:) should be the correct one.

The Little Golden Books are HCs. Are You Scared, Darth Vader, C-3PO Hates Sand and Rebel Rising are HCs. RotJ Storybook (Scholastic) is TPB. RotJ Storybook (Random House) is HC and TPB. The Force Awakens Mad Libs is like a notepad, bound at the top, so TPB? Battle of the Bounty Hunters is HB. Cyberantics is HB.

While going through my stack of ComicBase disks (starting in 1996 with Version 2.0), I noticed I have a regular Archive version of #12 and a steelbook version. Is the steel book the Atlas version?
-
Other Star Wars stuff: Star Wars: Battle of the Bounty Hunters should probably move to Books. Not Star Wars, but Cyberantics should move to Books, as well. Star Wars Omnibus: Emissaries and Assasins need to fix the title to read "...and Assassins" Star Wars Hasbro slim and Star Wars: Kenner Star Wars Special seem to be the same comic, with the Hasbro version being a second printing (if the years are correct).

While spending some time in the Star Wars area of ComicBase, I noticed a slew of titles that should probably be in the Books section instead of Comic Books. Almost all are of the "Little Golden Book" type, with a few from Disney and Scholastic that are geared towards young readers. I warn you, this is going to be quite a list: Star Wars: A New Hope (Golden) Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (Golden) Star Wars: Heroes and Villains Little Golden Book Collection (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Droid (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Hero (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Jedi (Golden) Star Wars: I am a… Little Golden Book Library (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Pilot (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Princess (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Sith (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Stormtrooper (Golden) Star Wars: I am a Wookie This one needs a Title fix to read "Wookiee" Star Wars Little Golden Book Library Star Wars Little Golden Book: Rolling With BB-8 Board Book Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (Golden) Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (Golden) Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (Golden) Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Golden) Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Golden) Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (Golden) So, that's the Little Golden books. Weird, there doesn't seem to be one for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker...

Magazines: Star Wars Insider
Michael Jacobson replied to Michael Jacobson's topic in Content and Corrections
Let me see if I can clear this up a little: Issue 172 has the correct cover (Newsstand edition) and UPC listed Issue 172-A could be right, "Notes" are wrong Issue 172-B incorrect cover, "Notes" are wrong (should be Subscription edition wit Chirrut Imwe cover) Issue 172-C incorrect cover (should be a cover with UPC, either scan for 172-B or 172-D), correct UPC, " Notes" are wrong Issue 172-D incorrect cover (should be Celebration Light Side Jyn Erso cover) Issue 172-E correct cover (Celebration Dark Side) -
Issue 172 has the correct cover (Newstand edition) Issue 172-E has the correct cover (Celebration Dark Side) The others don't match what's inside on the index page. Don't know why the picture is upside down.

Michael Jacobson replied to Gregory Hecht's topic in Content and Corrections
First one came out in 1992. Contents are the same for both, only difference is the covers. -
Clean-up for 4/29/2021 update
Michael Jacobson replied to Gregory Hecht's topic in Content and Corrections
It's not really a comic. Mostly a text overview of the various Grendel series' with a four page Grendel story. I would have left it in Comics, but I can see it in Books. -
Clean-up for 4/29/2021 update
Michael Jacobson replied to Gregory Hecht's topic in Content and Corrections
In the last update (4-29-21), The History of Grendel: Devil In Reflection was moved from Comics to Books. It has one entry, listed under Item # as "1". There are two, the first on published by Dark Horse (not COMICO) and Capital Comics in 1992. The second printing was by Dark Horse and Advance Comics in 1993.When I tried to bring my data from Comics to Books, I ended up with three entries: the original Book entry (Item #1), my Comic to Book entry became Item # TPB and my second printing became Item # TPB 2. How do I get it to read as just 2 or 1-2? or whatever signifies Second Printing. While I'm at it, it's not a TPB. It just a 12-page Staple-Bound. Currently, my issues are listed as "Staple-2" and "1", in that order. -
Here's a few more that need to be moved to Books: Another Chance to Get It Right The Marvel Art of Conan the Barbarian The Red Star (iBooks) Soon I Will Be Invincible

Here are a few titles that need category changes: Akira Club: listed under Comic Books, should be moved to Books. It's an art book, if anything. Aliens: Tribes: listed under Comic Books, should be moved to Books. It's a prose novel with fully painted illustrations in each chapter. Batman: Murder at Wayne Manor: move from Comic Books to Books. Batman: The Complete History : move from Comic Books to Books, along with... Superman: The Complete History , and... Wonder Woman: The Complete History, to finish the Trinity. DC Comics: Sixty Years of the World's Favorite Comic Book Heroes: belongs in Books. Grendel: Past Prime: move to Books. This is a novel with illustrations. Wayne of Gotham: move to books, a straight-out novel with no illustrations.

I found that Ren and Stimpy (Marvel) has covers for Retro Fan (TwoMorrows). Under Ren and Stimpy 3, 6-14 and 18.

Lady Pendragon Vol.1, 2 and 3
Michael Jacobson replied to Michael Jacobson's topic in Content and Corrections
Well, Vol.1 is just one issue. Vol.2 is a three issue mini-series. I don't think Book 1 warrants it's own entry. -
Hellraiser, from BOOM!, has a #0 issue that was only offered online as a .pdf file. The eight page story can currently be found here. I've had it it in my database for 10 years, waiting for a way enter digital comics.

Unknown Items in my latest update brought this to my attention. Lady Pendragon Vol.1 has an Ashcan 1 that seems to be identical to Ashcan 2 and 2-B under Lady Pendragon Vol.2. The indicia reads "Lady Pendragon Vol. 2 Prelude", so the Vol. 1 Ashcan and the Vol. 2 Ashcan 2-B should be deleted. Additionally, Vol.2 #1-2nd printing seems to be the same as Vol.1 #1-2nd Printing. The Vol.2 entry should be deleted. While we are on the subject of Vol.2, 1-C and 1-F appear to be the same issue. Issue 1-F should be deleted. Now, onto Lady Pendragon Vol.3 (you thought I forgot, didn't you?). Bk 1 contains material from Vol.1 , Vol.2 and the Cover Gallery one-shot, but nothing from Vol.3. It should be moved to Lady Pendragon Vol.2, since it contains that complete run of issues.

This entry in Comics should be moved to Books. It is the prose novel version of the comics. I tried creating an entry for it in Books, but I keep getting an error dialog box: Can't Save Issue: Had trouble saving this issue: constraint failed FOREIGN KEY constraint failed. *Seemed to have fixed error by naming the entry "Batman: The Ultimate Evil (Novel)".
-
Appleseed ID should be moved from Books back to Comics because a good chunk of it is composed of a short story comic. In addition, the trade dress matches Appleseed (Dark Horse) second editions as well as Appleseed Hypernotes.

Yesterday, I ran the latest content update and this error came up with the app: Back Issue #125 (magazine): UPC #1-82658-00420-0 is in the database. When scanned, I get "ERROR: Scan Lookup Request Failed With Error".

Unknown Items list
Michael Jacobson replied to Michael Jacobson's topic in News & General Discussion
Support helped. Apparently, I had multiple databases with the same ID. Deleting them from Collection Statistics and running the new weekly update cleared them from my list.
