entering a mint copy of Action comics #1 50th Anniversary reprint

[Jon Heimerl]

How do I do this? I have one copy, and have spent 30 minutes looking for alternative ways to find and enter the comic but can find nothing

[Gregory Hecht]

Are you referring to the 1988 reprint comic?  If so, then that is in the database under the title Action Comics, issue #1 (5th printing).  

[Jon Heimerl]

yes the 1988 reprint

 

but how do i find that in comicbase. If I enter any portion of that title, I see no way to enter a copy

I am not sure I understand what you are saying.
You can get to the title in at least two ways.
1) in the Find box in the top middle of the window, type Action Comics.
If for some reason that doesn't display a list that includes Action Comics, Use the Find drop-down box next to the find box and select 'Publisher', then use it again to select 'Title name or Barcode'.
(Occasionally, CB will get confused what the box is searching for)

2) use CTRL+T to bring up the Titles window, then type Action Comics in the box at the top. When it is highlighted, press Enter or click the Go button.

Once you have the Title displayed, scroll down (if needed) to Item # 1-5.
The change the Qty value to 1 (assuming you have one copy).
That is all you have to do to indicate you Own that issue.
You can also change the Grade, and Cost or any other value for the issue.

ah yes I see - I had no idea the 1-5 meant reprint - I had inferred it was some alternate cover from other issues listed. - still new to comicbase
