1/23/2019 Topic: THE ULTIMATE COMICS THROWDOWN! Ronbatman Administrator	Just a bit biased.
1/23/2019 Topic: Superman Vs. Flash RACES and others? Ronbatman Administrator	Marciano, I think a lot of people would be interested in this. If you want to form this into an article I'll post it on the blog. Your name and website address (if any) would be at the bottom. Let me know.
1/23/2019 Topic: UNCANNY X-MEN #1 MARK BROOKS VIRGIN EXCLUSIVE Ronbatman Administrator	I've approved and researched those Mark Brooks issues for Unknown Comics and the J. Scott Campbell and Jusko issues as well. We have 11 new variants in the system for Uncanny X-men #1. Have a good one, Ron
1/27/2019 Topic: New to Collecting Ronbatman Administrator	For graded comics make sure that the comic is sealed. Sometimes people will crack them open and the seal will be broken. Buy what you like Find an artist that you like and collect some of his or her issues Buy a certain style like Action #1 Homage covers Buy a Title that you enjoy like Luke Cage Buy cover that show your favorite character like Gambit or Storm After a while you'll figure out what kind of art or collection you want to have.

1/29/2019 Topic: One Comic in Multiple Boxes Ronbatman Administrator	You cannot put one comic book in more than one box. Just like in the real world it can only exist in one place at a time, sorry no multiverse. If you have two of the same issue you can put them in different boxes as shown with my screenshot.
2/4/2019 Topic: Savage Eve Ronbatman Administrator	I've entered the title in and a few variants. Use the usual means to submit a variant with the cover scans and I'll approve them. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/savage-eve/pkqwhp Thanks, edited by ronbatman on 2/4/2019
2/5/2019 Topic: Harley Quinn # 57 Red Hot Ronbatman Administrator	colbalt91 wrote: Coming up...I see the variant cover for Brian Michael Bendis Cover # 6 becoming the new Batgirl # 23. I like the Jim Lee self portrait but I don't see it shooting up like Batgirl did. It's impossible to predict this market so who knows? My prediction is that Detective #1000 Adam Hughes cover, Frankie's Comics Exclusive is the next big price jump. It's a gorgeous cover. https://frankiescomics.com/products/detective-comics-1000-adam-hughes-catwoman?variant=10152281473060
2/5/2019 Topic: Captain Canuck Summer Special 2014 Ronbatman Administrator	I've added those issues to the database. Be warned that the sales information is very limited, we looked at 2018 up until today. But it's in the system and if sales happen we can adjust the prices. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/captain-canuck-summer-special-2014/pkqwhs
2/5/2019 Topic: Season's Beatings Deadpool is mis labeled Ronbatman Administrator	It's fixed now. Season's Beatings seems much more like Deadpool

2/5/2019 Topic: Halifax Explosion giveaway comic Ronbatman Administrator	Is this the book? Seems like it is to me. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/true-north-comics/tbxti
2/5/2019 Topic: Uploading Files Ronbatman Administrator	I can tell you that we are receiving scans daily so the system is working fine. There could be a corrupt file. We don't use http: addresses to add covers so that will not work. Sorry for the trouble you're having. R
2/7/2019 Topic: Store Exclusives Ronbatman Administrator	So I'm working on an article and I'm not finding any information on Google on this topic. What was the first comic store exclusive book? The oldest book that I've found is from 1999. Can any of you find or think of something older? Second question, what was the first convention exclusive book? My best guess right now is something with Wizard World or San Diego Comic Con Please help me find this out and we will share it with the world R
2/7/2019 Topic: Store Exclusives Ronbatman Administrator	The oldest convention exclusive that I've found is Flaming Carrot Comics #19 from July 1988 SDCC exclusive. Did anyone find anything older?

2/11/2019 Topic: Yen Press pre Innocent Issue ? Ronbatman Administrator	It's a weird front cover but it's what's on the inside that counts. It's a comic. Do you want me to put it in the database? R
2/14/2019 Topic: Found a new error comic Ronbatman Administrator	Today, I was going through the Immortal Hulks and found an error book. I haven't seen anyone announce this or talk about it. Immortal Hulk #10 - 2nd Print Immortal Hulk #10 - 2nd Print error You would think that 2nd printings have low production numbers so an error would make it even rarer. The cover says issue #8 in the lower left corner on the error version. Everything else is the same. R
2/14/2019 Topic: Entering creators who use nicknames Ronbatman Administrator	Me and Rob Otto (one of our blog writer) have been going through the creators and fixing errors, adding missing creators and adding nicknames. We found the same issue with the nickname not being searchable. (Currently, it set to search on the last name only) We are talking about changing the search to include both pieces of their name. I don't know if that's what will happen yet since we are still working through it. There are other options to consider. I could see us setting up 3 areas with creators, First, Nickname and Last. Then make it searchable by either choice. Ron
2/15/2019 Topic: First appearance of immortal Hulk picking up in va Ronbatman Administrator	I'm going through all of the Immortal Hulk issues because they are very hot. The Alex Ross covers are doing better than variants, even though they are rarer. It's the unique take of the familiar Hulk story that is driving the price increases. (in my mind) As of this writing, I still need to go through #1-3.
