The current version of CB is v25.6.3.4076.

And what if they come out with a 2025 Anl 2?

If you don't want CB to change your customized issues, then, in the Update Option window (displayed when you check for an Update), uncheck the box next to 'Automatically match unknown items...'. If you do this CB won't try to match unrecognized items. You would need to do that manually (if needed).

I have tired menu item File->Files Tolls and the Rebuild List option? The first 2 check boxes, especially but the first 4 won't hurt. This may or may not help but it can't hurt.

So am I. Until the issues are physically in hand, they can't be scanned. Data can be added before release date from preview data.

This week's Update hasn't been processed yet. Since the 'Diamond' situation, comics aren't arriving in time to get the normal Wednesday update. It has been on Friday for the last several weeks.

I am not positive but I think this has to do with the Preferences setting 'Automatically Download larger pictures...'. Not sure of the 'mechanics' of the process but this has happened to others.

There are two sets of Custom Fields. The first set are 'Series Fields (i.e. Title Fields). They only show up when you edit a Title. The second set (the ones you want to use) are the Item Fields (i.e Issue Fields). These will show up in the Grid (if you select to Show them).

Of the 447, how many were Variants or books (softcover or hardcover)?

The process that caused the issues from 'Marvel Masterworks: The Uncanny X-Men' has been corrected. Anything that was erroneously deleted should be added back with the next Content Update you run.

Correction. It is not isolated to just me. Others are getting the same deletes. Support has been notified.

Not sure what is going on but it seems to be isolated to me.

Not yet, but I think Pete said there might be (but for a different reason).

I am sure it can be entered. The question is what Type and and How to enter them. For Type, it is definitely not Comic Books. That leaves Books or Magazines. Here is a link that lists 33 of the books from MayFair Games: https://www.nobleknight.com/Products/DC-Heroes---Core-and-Sourcebooks-Mayfair-Games Once the Type is determined, then should it be one Titles or individual Titles. And, if one Title what would it be called? Also, what is the Item #? There IS a number associated with the books. (Depends on Type and One Title/Multiple Titles) For example 'Who's Who in the DC Universe has a Manufactory number 0f MFB2601992. It was printed in 1992, so it could be 260 If Books and 1 Title, Item Number could be TPB 260. If Books and Multiple Titles, then just TPB If Magazines, Item Number could be 260. Or some other set of values. The above are just suggestions to the editors.

You might consider getting the most recent build (it can't hurt). You can do this two ways. Set Up->Preferences and check the box next to 'Check for Interim Updates'. Then use Internet->Check For Updates. or Go to CB website and use My Account->Registrations, click the green down-arrow next to your active subscription, then download the install. Run the install after downloading (with CB closed). If you still can select anything in the selection area, you will probably have to contact support@comicbase.com to see why you can't select anything.

I have found can happen if you have Setup->Preferences setting 'Automatically download larger pictures...' checked. Not sure if that is what is happening for you.

A) What Edition / Version of CB do you have (Help->About will supply this information)? B) What steps are you taking? In my Archive Edition v25.6.3.3797, I select Report->Divider Labels. At the top is a 'Series to Print' box with three options: Current Series Series I Own Selected Series Either click on the radio button for Current Series (single title currently displayed) or Selected Series (Choose... button appears that allows selecting multiple series (either Shift+Click to select a range or Ctrl+Shift to select non-consecutive titles). Optionally change Tab Height and/or check Print Labels on both sides and/or List only Titles in Stock. Check and change Label information. At this point I use Preview to see what would print and I get just the titles I selected (either current Series or Selected Series since you don't want all the series you own).

I hope you mean renamed and not just delete because those issues do exist (just shouldn't be variation Z).

Sorry, my comments were mostly directed to the CB editors and not you (I should have made that more clear). I was just confirming what you found and that there didn't appear to be a 6th variation.

There appears to be two versions of the Miguel Mercado ASM 300 variant from Unknown Comics: one with trade dress and one virgin. On eBay, I found: Trade Dress ASM 300 homage cover: UPC 75960620085600241 Virgin ASM 300 homage cover: UPC 75960620085600251 With the first 3 (#2 00211, #2/A 00221, and #2B 00231) that makes 5 total. If you want a gap in variations, I would Delete 2/C (renaming the cover to 2/D. If you do not want a gap, I would delete 2/C and change 2/D to 2/C, 2/E to 2/D.

Thank you. I have a better idea of what is happening now. Unfortunately, none of that is happening in my database so I can't begin to explain it or test anything. I would contact support@comicbase.com directly and see it they can figure it out.

So when you say they were changed back, that is from what you changed it to back to the way the master database has them. The way the punctuation is in the master database is the controlling information. For better or worse, Apostrophes and Ellipse are the way the official Titles have been named. If you change them in your database and have 'Automatically match unknown items checked in the Update option window), they will be changed back. (If you don't have it checked, the title you changed that doesn't match the master database will still be deleted unless you own issues in that title. In that case, all the issues except the ones you own will be deleted.) You can continue to change it back the way you want and submit it, but it won't change the Titles in the master database.

What was move again?
