Unrecognized items that I can't find

[Fred Slota]

Second pass on reconciling Unreconciled items.  I've adjusted a couple to use custom Variations, I have a couple honest-to-goodness real variants not in the database that I'll submit, but I have a couple I can't find.

 

These are listed as Unrecognized Comics...

Giant-Size X-Men Tribute 1

X-Men: Mutant Empire 1
X-Men: Mutant Empire 2
X-Men: Mutant Empire 3

 

My database has a title "Giant-Size X-Men: Tribute to Wein & Cockrum", and "Giant-Size X-Men" (with no Tribute #1 issue), but no "Giant-Size X-Men Tribute".

 

My Database has a title "X-Men: Mutant Empire", but it is a "Book", not a "Comic Book", and further does not have regular issues #1, 2 or 3.

I tried searching for Mutant Empire on the Internet and all I can find are 3 text novels and 1 book that collects them.
I checked MyComicShop and GCD and can't find any comic listing (MyComicShop has the text novels listed).
Is what you have an actual comic or a text story?

Did the same for Giant-Size X-Men Tribute.
Only finding the one with Wein and Cockrum item (both single issues with variations and a book) at MyComicShop and GCD.

Can you supply scans or links to the issues?
It is possible you have something that isn't in CB (or MyComicShop or GCD) but if so, I am not finding any indication.

You have completely misunderstood my issue.

 

I'm not reporting that I physically own the above issues and am wondering why ComicBase has never heard of them.

 

I am reporting that ComicBase is complaining about "Unrecognized Comics" in the database that I don't physically own and for which I am unable to find the titles or issues to delete them and clear the issue.

Ah, thank you for clarifying that.

Look at this Post as it looks like a similar issue to yours.

If that doesn't help you may need to contact support. CB is finding those Items somewhere.

Forgot about list rebuildings...  Thanks for the reply.   Mid-process dialog tells me 4 problems were found and fixed.  I'll let you know what I see when all is finished.

The List rebuild appears to have cleared those four phantom items up.  Thanks.
