ComicBase: The World’s #1 Software for Managing Comic Collections

ComicBase is the world's largest comic book database, and the #1 professional inventory system on CD-ROM/DVD-ROM for keeping track of your comic book collection.

The new ComicBase 11.0 now sports more comics than ever, including cross-indexed descriptions of over 275,000 comics and price histories for the past four years. It also features something that’s never been seen before in the program’s long history: free, downloadable price and title updates.

Unlike other programs, ComicBase can automatically price your comics according to their condition and lets you take note of autographed copies, special covers, multiple printings and of course, your cost, in your inventory. It can also create price labels and a wide variety of reports to help you buy, sell, and evaluate your collection.

ComicBase 11’s new barcode support let you jump straight to a comic by using its assigned ComicBase barcode, or through the EAN/UPC number printed on the cover. The improved, industrial-strength Find feature lets you find comic-book characters' first appearances, second appearances, deaths, origin stories, or trace a certain storyline or find work by favorite writers and artists.
