  1. Looks like it is in 'Shi: The Way of the Warrior' #4-2. https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/86012/1/Shi-The-Way-of-the-Warrior-42
  2. At a guess, I think CB is automatically downloading the one in the master database and replacing the one you modified. Use menu item Setup->Preferences and see if you have Automatically Download Larger Pictures checked. (see attaached) If you do, uncheck it, modify the cover and see if it stay that way.
  3. When you click on the cover can in the grid area, does the expanded image have the correct orientation? If it does, you may just need to delete the thumbnail. They are located in folder C (colon) \Users\Public\Documents\Human Computing\Thumbnails . Since the Publisher is 'Legendary', open the 'L' folder, then the 'Legendary' folder and finally the 'Holy Terror (Legendary)' folder. Delete the thumbnail (these are all recreated so there is no danger doing this). If that doesn't fix it, it may be getting re-downloaded.

  5. Just about all lists I have seen do not consider leasing articles when considering the Order of names. 'El' is Spanish is an article and should not be the leading part of a sort order so 'El Dorado' should be sorted among the 'D's. The Issue table only has 'Title' in it while the Title table has 'Title', 'DisplayTitle' and 'AlphabetizedTitle'. Not knowing the programming, I don't know if a Find can be done on 'Title' and' 'DisplayTitle' (which would have the leading article at the beginning) with out slowing down the process and/or getting duplicates in the suggestion list. Same thing when you display the Title window (CTRL+T). Having said that, when doing a Find (especially if you are having problems getting the result you want), try using signficant or fewer words. In the case of 'El Dorado', trying 'Dorado' would have suggested 2 titles would be suggested (with one of the 'Dorado, El'). Even just typing 'Dora' would bring up a list with 'Derado, El' being first in the list.

  7. If you have a scan of #2 4th printing, you can upload it, if you like.
  8. I can find a listing at Midtown Comics here: https://www.midtowncomics.com/product/2280581 and MyComicShop here: https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?asm=3&TID=60523566 Both have the correct UPC (first 13 characters), cover price ($23.00) and Year 2024 (though they differ on Month). And the Desciptions do mention the David Wenzel comic book adaptation.

  11. Did you create another Database at some point (even if you later deleted it) or do you have another database on your system? When you use CB or Sidekick, certain actions prompt CB to send a list of found databases to the CB Website. Some things you can check... In CB use File->Recent Databases and see if more than one database shows up. In Windows, go to C(colon)\Users\<your-logon-id>\Documents\Human Computing\ComicBase Databases folder and see if there more than one *.cbdb file (that are not backups). You can use the Database Unique Identifier (found with File->Collection Statistics then clicking on the icon that looks like a cylinder in the top right corner) to remove the extraneous one from the CB Website. If you have not created a new database and/or don't have an extra database in the supplied folder, then I am not sure how the second database is showing up.
  12. Try this: In ComicBase, use File->Collection Statistics. In the top right-hand corner is an icon that looks like a stack of discs with an 'i' in a circle. Click on this. In the middle of the next window is 'Database ID' with a long string of numbers an letter. This is the Unique Identifier for the database. Note this or copy it somewhere. Go to the ComicBase website. Use My Account->My Comics. For each database listed, remove all reports Then use My Account->Profile. Scroll down to 'Known Databases' Delete any databases that do NOT match the Unique Identifier. (or you can just delete all the listed databases.) Open the ComicBase App on you mobile device. There should be nothing available. Back in ComicBase use Sidekick and click on Save to Cloud When finished Go back to ComicBase website and check 'Known Databases' uner Profile and 'Reports' in My Comics. (This may take a few minutes to get propogated and displayed). If everything looks correct (Database and Unique Identifier are correct) open ComicBase App on mobile device and see what you have.
  13. There is a Magazine title: 'IDW Catalog' with Issues: 2008, 2010, Smr 2014, Fall 2014, WS 2014, Spr 2015, WS 2016, 2017, Smr 2018 and a Comic Book title: 'Summer Insider' with Issues: 2017, 2018 (NOTE: Based on the title, 'Summer Insider' should probably be moved to Magazine and possibly merged with 'IDW Catalog' (the SMR 2018 cover title is '2018 Summer Insider'). Not sure if the 2024 issue you have should be added to the Magazine Title 'IDW Catalog' or if a new one is needed.

  15. Not sure when the new build (.1137) was posted but there is a delay between when the build number changes on the web page and when the actual program is updated to the various server locations. Usually it isn't too long but that could account for you first issue.

I am just deleting them assuming they will show up in the correct locations. PS 'Robyn Hood: Hellfire', 'Belle Annual' and 'Belle: Queen of Serpents' have similar covers but with different outfits and are probable locations.)

  19. Do you have a year published? There are about 7 different 'Soulfire' titles (assuming it isn't one of the other 'Soulfire:xxx' titles). It might be https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/902984/1/Soulfire-Michael-TurnerrsquoshellipVol-7-1-Variation-F
  20. Title should be: Mandrake Project, The (Bruce Dickinson’s…) The article 'the' comes at the end of the name but before the parenthetical. Also, is the title was something like this made up example 'The Mandrake Project: Beginning of the End', the article would come after the end of the 'main' name and before the colon like: 'Mandrake Project, The: Beginning of the End' Also, CB uses an actual Ellipses … instead of three periods ... (one is one 'character space' and the other is three 'character spaces'. Additionally, CB uses the curved Apostrophe ’ and not the straight 'tick mark'.

  22. You can re-run the Update. To do this, press and hold the SHIFT key while selecting Internet->Check for Updates.
  23. Scan the cover, crop it so only the cover is showing and save as a .jpg file. In Grid view look at the Issue number. Name the cover scan exactly the same as the Issue number with the exception that any slash '/' is replaced with a dash (-) (because Windows won't allow a slash in a file name). Then, while displaying the Title the cover will go in, drag/drop the cover scan into the Grid area. This does NOT have to be on the specific Issue line. Just anywhere in the Grid area. If you like, after adding the cover scan, Select/Hi-light the Issue( s ), Right-click and select Submit New or Corrected information (at the bottom) of the pop-up menu .
  24. While CB tries to have all Titles and Issues, it does not have every title and Issue (not to mention variations) that have ever been (or will be) published. They will (probably) have most modern (US) Titles and main Issues but it is very possible you have or will come across something that is not in CB. You can either send an email to Support (at) Comicbase.com about it or enter it yourself. This is an article on the basics of adding a new Title and/or Issue not in CB. At a bare minimum to add a Title/Issue to CB you need a Title Name, Publisher, and Issue Number. How to Add a New Title Change to the correct Type (this example will be for Comic Books but the basics are the same for all types). To do this click on the button in the top left corner just below the Menu bar. See attached. or use CTRL+(number) where Number is 1-Books, 2-Comic Books, 3-Magazines, or 4-Newspapers. Click the button to the right of the Select Type and select New Comic Book. See attached. or use Menu Item->New <type> or Item->New-> New Type or use CTRL+SHIFT+(number) where Number is 1-Books, 2-Comic Books, 3-Magazines, or 4-Newspapers. This will bring up a window where you enter the new Title Name Enter the name in text box (more on how to name a title in a bit) then click OK or press ENTER. See attached. NOTE: The SAVE button at the bottom does not do anything. This will bring up a New Comic Book Title window. Enter a Publisher name. If the Publisher exists in CB, after typing 3 letters, you will start to get a list of Publisher suggestions. Either complete the Publisher's name or select from the list. Click Save. (more on Publishers in a bit) See attached. (continued in How to Add New Issue) How to Add a New Issue. Either continue from the above or to add an issue to an existing Title. NOTE: If adding to an existing Title, all the previous information will be duplicated and the issue number incremented by 1. You can delete or change anything needed. Go to the Title you want to add a new issue to. On the left side of the window about half way down is a + - button. Click on this to bring up the New Issue window. See attached. This will bring up the New Issue window. (Continued from How to Add a New Title) NOTE: The Window displayed for the two methods (through New Title or New Issue) are slightly different but not enough to change instructions. At this point, make sure the Issue number is correct. then click Save. See attached. How to Name a Title. This can be a bit obscure for some things. First I would look to see if it is in CB. NOTE: Since Leading articles are NOT at the beginning, I would leave it off when typing in the search box. For example for 'The Tenth Muse' just use 'Tenth Muse' (or just 'Tenth' or 'Muse') to see if you can find it. For main issues of most mainstream US comics it should already be in CB. This may not be true for Variants, non-US, or smaller/obscure publishers (i.e. Kick Starter titles). If in doubt, you can either post to the CB forum and ask or send a message to Support (at) ComicBase.com (cover scan and any information you can supply will help) Some Rules / Guidelines (which may have contradictions already in the database): 1) Generally, try to use what is in the indicia/Title page. (This isn't always followed by CB and some publishers indicia names are strange) 2) Use curved ’ (apostrophe) instead of a straight ‘ (‘tick’ mark) 3) Use … (ellipse) instead of ... (three consecutive periods). 4) It the Title includes a possessive (i.e. Will Eisner's, Walt Disney's, Michael Turner's) place an Ellipse at the end and put inside Parenthesis (). 5) Place leading Articles at the end of the name. If the Title has a colon : it would be after the name but before the colon. English articles include 'The' 'A' and 'An'. Some non-English articles are 'El', 'De', 'Der', 'Die'. NOTE: This NOT a complete list (especially the non-English ones). Special exemption. If the title contains a / (slash), the leading article is place at the very end and not just at the end of the first name. For example, 'The Batman/Judge Dredd Files' would be entered as 'Batman/Judge Dredd Files, The' and not 'Batman, The/Judge Dredd Files'. Examples: #2 Apostrophe ’ 12 O’Clock High #3 Ellipse … After Watchmen…What’s Next? #4 Possessive All New Fathom (Michael Turner’s…) 7 Against Chaos (Harlan Ellison’s…) Big Mickey Mouse (Walt Disney’s…) Alchemist, The (H.P. Lovecraft’s…) (note the article is at the end of the name but before the possessive in parenthesis) #5 Leading Article (The, A, An, El, etc.) 13th Son, The 50’s Ditko Cover Gallery, A Unkindness of Ravens, An Arsenal, El 3 Geeks, The: Jim’s Jerky (note the 'The is at the end but before the colon) Batman/Judge Dredd Files, The Complete Max Collins/Rick Fletcher Dick Tracy, The This is by no means a complete list of things to deal with when naming Titles but it should cover the majority. One more thing. CB Includes in a series thinks like Annuals and collections that only collect issues of that series and not in separate 'Annuals' or 'Collection' series. Publisher Names In General, CB leaves of part of the Publisher name such as 'Comics', 'Press' 'Entertainment', 'Books'. This is not always the case as doing this can cause duplicate of different Publisher ('Ace' when there is an 'Ace Comics', Ace Books', 'Ace Magazine' etc.) For example, the actual Publisher is 'Marvel Comics' or 'Marvel Worldwide, Inc.' but CB just uses 'Marvel'. This is the same for '10 Ton' Press, 'CA' Comics, 'Invader' Comics, etc. All I can suggest is look and see what titles are in CB with the Publisher you are thinking of using. Check the Years Published (if a company published some back in the 40s (only) and the Publisher you are trying to use for a modern comic is the same, they probably are not the same publisher. You can also check the logo on the cover to see if they are the same (or different) although this is not definitive as a company can change the logos over time. If if doubt ask on the forums or send a email to Support (at) Comicbase.com. =========================== A quick note on Issue Full Issue Number values in Issue Edit window. The Full Issue Number is composed of four parts: Type Issue number Variation Printing Regarding Type and (especially) Variation. When CB was young and Types and Variations were few, CB starting using things like Gold, Platinum, Platinum Nude, Graphic Novel (to name a few) as part of the Full Issue Number. As time went on and Publisher went insane with differnt types of issues with combinations of features, this became difficult to come up with a short 2-5 character abbreviation to accommodate this. Similar when Variations went from 1 or 2 to dozens and hundreds (and in one case many thousands), they changed to using Variations A-Z, V27-V250 (so far). This is not to day you can't use existing Types and Variations but they are used less today. Some Types like 'Anl' (annual), 'Ash' (ash can) are still used. How to decide if or what Type and Variation to use is a difficult subject to give instructions on. It may be best to ask, if in doubt. =========================== As stated at the beginning, Title, Publisher and Issue number are the minimum needed to enter a comic. You can, of course enter as much other information as you like (i.e. Cover Date, Cover Price, Stroylines, credits (Writer/Artist/Inker/Colorist/Letterer/Editor/Cover Artist/Cover Inker).
  25. If an issue is marked, it should not disappear just by closing the database. Can you describe in detail (with screen shots, if possible) the process you are doing?
