From the main page of the site, click on your username, then on your rank number. If you've submitted any info for any books, it will show what was a hit, miss or pending.

Mine shows the last 10 entries for each. Not sure if that's a "free member" limit or if that's what everyone sees.

Huh, looks like you can also just click on "About" at the top right, then "Member Ranks". Takes you to the same page, but you can get it from the forum as well that way.

Thanks for the update. I'm probably one of the few that doesn't have a problem with the existing forum, but I look forward to what is to come.
This is a great site with a great community. Glad to be a part of it.

Naming the Comic Book Ages

I kind of like the idea of sticking with metals. Problem is, what to choose? Chromium does have a nice ring to it. And there were a lot of foil covers in the 90's so it's kind of fitting.
.
In 2007 Marvel launched it's Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited. Might be a good year to end the age we're working on naming now.
.
And if we're thinking ahead, we could name the age after that the Silicone Age or something else tech related.

Going by decade would make things so much easier imo. Or by print size, meaning the width of the book. All I need to know is what bags and boards I need to grab. Heck, let's just call them the Small Medium and Large Ages wink

Even you show using decade splits in your example Ronbatman.
Wouldn't it be just as easy to search eBay by saying you want Venom #1 from the 90's? 00's? 10's? It's actually simpler than trying to remember that 1990-1991 are not in the same comic age as the rest of the 90's. Or that the 80's are both Bronze and Copper Age.

Merc Magazine is just the name of the publishing company. Jaime Tyndall is known for his magazine style covers, so that's what he named his company.
Deathrage is a standard comic. See attached.

That was on purpose to show what we are thinking about doing. I think it makes sense to lead up to the year 2000 with the chromium age and then go by decades.


Okay, that makes total sense. And I can totally get behind that. The Ages are a part of the history of the hobby. They've earned their place. And if we go by decades starting in 2000, it'll be a hundred years before it gets weird. By then it'll be someone else's problem Big Grin

Actually, it looks like it came out in September of last year. There's even 81 in the CGC census: https://www.cgccomics.com/census/grades_standard.asp?ComicID=228727

I've got a pretty extensive Gen 13 collection. Let me take a look and see what I have.

Eh, turns out I'm not much help on this one. I have the Annual #1, but not the Yearbook.
There is actually a Christmas special too. It's in the system as a one-shot here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/gen-13-a-christmas-caper/pnpuk
Maybe that's what the special is referring to?
I've got a copy of the yearbook on the way (perfect excuse to finally pick one up) so I should be able to give you the skinny on that in a few days.

Either way, there should be a note added to this that it continues the story from issue 65.

Gen 13 -1 Incorrect Volume

Wanted to separate this out from the Gen 13 Annual thread.

There was mention of the -1 issue. Out of curiosity, I pulled my out to take a look at it. There is nothing on it indicating that it is an ETM exclusive. Not saying it isn't, there just isn't any branding or markings on the book itself.

Also, the indicia states that it was "Originally published as Gen 13 #1/2 by Wizard: The Guide to Comics." That means this book should actually be listed under the mini-series, not volume 1.

Can't speak to the Youngblood issue, but I've got another flip book for you to fix if you'd like.

Got my copy of the yearbook today.
Per the indicia: Gen 13 Yearbook '97
June 1997
Cover shows issue 1, but this a one-shot
UPC: 70985304656100111

Can verify with absolute certainty that it is completely different than the Annual 1. This should get it's own listing either as a stand alone book or under the specials tab. Not sure what the preferred method is these days.

Finally got around to reading my copy. I didn't look into the story at all before I read it either. Totally not what I was expecting. I mean, it's a horror book so the next few issues should start to get pretty gruesome I would think. He warned them. Obviously some of them just won't listen. I wonder who will be the first. I'm guessing The Comedian.

Help finding value of my comics

There were a lot of different Fathom volumes and mini-series.
What is the publisher on yours (Aspen or Image/Top Cow)?
Are there any other words around the title (example: Beginnings / Blue Descent)?
What are the issue numbers?
