Comic Book Manager

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffAugust 19, 2010This no-frills database application lets you easily keep track of your comic book collection. While its bland interface won't wow you, Comic Book Manager is relatively simple to understand. Enter information using four screens: publisher, series, title, or issue. (Input data into the publisher and series areas first as the title and issue sections pull from them.) The title and issue sections can handle tons of information including price value, autographed date, condition, and character details, as well as colorer, inker, penciler, and writer. You also can import images of the comic's cover. As you'd expect, you can search your database by publisher, title, or character, among other options. You can export and preview reports, but don't expect to print as the print feature is disabled. Unfortunately, we experienced a few performance stalls during data input. After a few spins, however, we found Comic Book Manager easy to use and potentially a handy tool for avid collectors.
