    Bigger than ever before! ComicBase now includes listings and current prices for over 1,250,000 comics, plus millions of additional book, magazine, and newspaper listings, all with current market pricing. With all this information at your fingertips, you only need to look up the items you've got and note their quantity, condition, and any information that's special to your collection.

  • Revised Valuation Model for Graded Comics

    Graded comics have transformed the comic industry, and ComicBase 2025 uses a new, more sophisticated model for evaluating the market value of graded comics to give you the most accurate picture of the true worth of your collection. The new model uses separate valuation breakdowns for low, mid, and high dollar comics, giving estimated values which far more closely match realized auction and sales results.
