Product Features
ComicBase is the world’s largest comic book database, and the #1 software system for keeping track of your comic book collection. The new ComicBase comes with built-in listings on virtually every comic published in the English language since the late 1800s, cover over 325,000 issues and over 25,00 titles. With free, downloadable price and title updates each week for a year and current pricing provided by the Comics Buyer’s Guide—we work hard to keep you current on the comics that matter to you!
ComicBase will automatically price your comics according to their condition when you use the built-in dropdown menu, but you can also start up the Grading Wizard and have the program help you determine its grade if you’re not sure about the condition of a comic you own. Use our barcode support jump feature (available in all versions) to go straight to a comic using the EAN/UPC number printed on the cover, or find the comic by using its assigned ComicBase barcode. To help you buy, sell, and evaluate your collection at home or on the road, ComicBase can also track the purchase cost of your collection and generate a wide variety of reports and labels—including the new Collection Inventory Report—based on the criteria that you choose, like publisher, issues in stock, publication year, and more!
With the ability to interface with Atomic Avenue, ComicBase also allows you to create your own comic book store online. Get in on the easiest, fastest, and most profitable marketplace to buy and sell comics—post an unlimited number of books for sale at no charge on Atomic Avenue with just a couple of clicks!
