ComicBase Livestream #234: Will Any Variant Do?

We're talking variants again--but this time, we need an answer from you. When you're collecting, do you try to get specific variant copies, or will any variant do when you're filling out your series? And is there anyone out there who (like Pokemon) has to catch them all?

We have a reason for asking--and we'll get into that as well. This, plus your questions, and the latest ComicBase news. See you at 4pm!

ComicBase Livestream #233: Q&A With Pete!

Pete did all the blabbing last week--now it's your turn! We'll be answering your questions--both sent in and live from the chat--in this all Q&A livestream. On deck are questions about selling your collection, whether we're killing off DVD releases, upgrading to a new machine, working with the new Tags feature, and more. Join us live at 4pm Central!

ComicBase Livestream #232: Do We Need Floppies?

The humble monthly comic book has been a staple of American comics since the beginning, but it's been slowly vanishing from the scene, even as the amount of comics-related and super-hero content has exploded in every form of media. So is the comics industry dying? Or is something else going on? We'll talk all about it on the next ComicBase Livestream, and offer a few answers that may surprise you...

ComicBase Livestream #231: Tags!

Pete's been cooking upsomething very cool down in his lab these past few weeks, and on this livestream, he'll be telling you all about it. The new, super-sized (and even AI-integrating(!)) tags system. Join us on this week's livestream to get all the details on this very cool new feature--as well as everything else that's going on in the world of ComicBase.

ComicBase Livestream #230: Tags, Titles, and Unfinished Business

We're in the midst of revamping searching, particularly on Atomic Avenue, and it's once again raised the issue of "tags" -- those little markers that let you attach special information to a title. They're the key to being able to create special collections of titles (e.g. Vampire Romances or Western Zombies), but up until now, we've sort of raised the whole issue but then let the topic drop without fully running the whole content update apparatus. Let's fix that now--join us for a discussion of what's up on what's sure to be a fairly lively livestream!

ComicBase Livestream #229: Fun With Technology!

Wowwy Wowwy Wow, are things changing fast!

From making multi-million-dollar Hollywood special effects to unleashing agent swarms from every Mac Mini on the planet, there's been a lot of fun going on in the world of tech these past couple of weeks. We'll get into it--along with thoughts on craft-brewing vs. Budweiser, differential time streams, and why Pete thinks Marvel and Disney are about to get pantsed by their own fans. Join us at 4pm Wednesday!

ComicBase Livestream #228: Love, Rockets, and Robotic Overlords

Happy (almost) Valentine's Day Everyone!


Love is in the air! As are rockets, satellites, and the ever-increasing sense that we are blasting toward the future at near-light speeds.


We'll be talking about the latest in ComicBase developments, talk a little bit about what we're working on now, and be getting into a lot of our thoughts about our "cocaine year" where AI moved into our lives in a big way--and how we're all still trying to figure out what it all means...


Join us Wednesday at 4!

Join us on this Wednesday's livestream where ComicBase creator Pete Bickford will go through everything that's new, answer your questions, and talk about what's next for the world's #1 program for managing comic collections!
