This might be a bit long winded. I was gifted an assorted collection of comics some years ago. For the most part, I simply held onto them thinking I may read them one day. Now I am simply looking to sell them off.
Problem is, I have no concept of collecting, selling, pricing, nothing. I have been browsing around trying to familiarize myself with the information available.
My biggest problem is I can't seem to find an estimated value on some of my comics. I haven't even gone through a third of my collection and already I can't find some of them anywhere on the site. Such as The Darkstars (DC), Black Canary new wings, Tomorrow Knights (the cover was different than the one I found here), The Mighty Magnor, Steel (again, nothing matched what I have). And Blood Syndicate vs. Superman (this one isn't here at all) to name a few. How might I go about figuring this out? I don't want to get ripped off, but I am way out of my element.

Here are the Darkstars http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/darkstars/uop
Here is Black Canary (new wings) http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/black-canary/phppn
Here is Mighty Magnor http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/mighty-magnor/ujpt
I presume you mean this Steel http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/steel/xow
Here is your Blood Syndicate http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/blood-syndicate-milestone/rcr#_pricing Scroll down to issue #16 to find the VS Superman issue.
Lastly here is Tomorrow Knights http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/tomorrow-knights-epic/tjyy But you said yours is different. Do you have a pic of it.
Hope that helps.

It helps that you linked to the ones I named, however, it does not help me figure out how to find them myself. A little help learning how to search better on my own? I think I have picked up some things like identifying if it's American or foreign, Identifying the issue, etc. It's been helping.
Can anyone direct me to a way to determine how much it might cost to have some of them graded?

Yep...I knew that Lol. I did not want to confuse you 
OK then, I will give you an example, Since you asked i will give you the secrets of the comic book world Lol.
The reason why you could not find your Black Canary new wings is that the "new wings" is a subtitle to the book Black Canary.
"Black Canary" is the main title. So...Don't type in the whole thing just Black Canary. Look to the top LHC to see the Company insignia & the issue number under it. Which in most cases also has the date of release.
Once you find it on CPG, Scroll down the through the issues to find the one that looks the same as yours.
You can click one the actual comic book picture that will enlarge for you.
Goes for most books out there DC, Marvel, Image, Dark Horse etc etc.
Your Blood Syndicate is in the same boat. The main title is Blood Syndicate not Blood Syndicate "VS Superman". That is who the character is facing/staring in that issue.
Could have been green lantern or anyone. Then it would have been Blood Syndicate VS "____".
I hope i have cleared it up a little for you.
There are some videos on YouTube that show one how to use the CPG site better.

Hope that helped some more.
