Marvel gives us something they have been teasing for a while in Deadpool #8: Deadpool vs. Death Grip. Definitely not an issue you want to miss.
TMNT: Mutant Nation from IDW picks up after the Armageddon Game event which is written by Tom Waltz (TMNT: Last Ronin). In spite of it not being 2500, 2000 AD just hit the 2400th issue. Now that’s a milestone we thought would be note worthy.

There we go again, new Wednesday, so new comics!
One of our content managers, Rowdy, is on vacation, so Justin and Taco started extra early today, so that they would still be able to get all Core entries for the new releases added and perfected before your LCS opens its doors!
For today’s NCBD, we added 231 new issues. Counting all variants, the total comes in at 517 new releases. Ouch!
The biggest “offender” today is Jonny Quest #1, with 28 different variants (check the pics below).
All new releases are of course directly accessible through your Add Comics. Either browse all new releases on the NCBD tab, or use Series, Issue or Barcode tabs to find them that way.

It’s Wednesday, so lots of new comics to be added to our CLZ Core online comic database. Today’s score: 485 new variants for 182 actual unique new issues.

[CLZ News] New “NCBD” tool and better scanner for CLZ Comics / Two improvements for Game Connect’s Add screen
This is the CLZ News for July 2024, brought to you by CLZ Alwin.
TWO big updates for the Add Comics screen of the CLZ Comics mobile app this month, one a complete re-design and rename of an existing feature (Pull List tab is now called “NCBD”), the other a change that is hardly even visible, but has huge benefits (smarter barcode scanner).
And.. we’ve got another Add screen update coming up next week!
For the Connect web-based software, we’re also focussing on improvement of the Add screen, starting with 2 small Game Connect tweaks this month, but with several other Add screen improvements coming up for Game, Movie and Comic Connect next week.
Then, there’s our endeavours for the mobile apps, to try and reach a bigger audience, by replacing our “free 7-day trial” with a “100-item free mode”.
The short story is “it failed big time” 🙁 We are back to our tried and tested “free 7-day trial”. Read on below for the long story.
The CLZ Content Team has been busy too. The comic guys Rowdy, Justin and Taco got swamped with huge NCBD’s in the past few weeks, combined with a flood of SDCC exclusives (still working to get the last ones covered).
Martin and Kelvin have been focussing on the barcode coverage of our Core for Games, so adding more barcodes and the correct cover images for them. Our Core is now recognizing over 99% of game barcodes worldwide!
Finally, we are still enjoying building big Lego projects together. After building the Lego Barad-dûr tower, we also finished the Avengers Tower!
Next up, the Hulkbuster 🙂
Today’s topics:
- CLZ Core mobile apps:
- CLZ Comics 9.4: Re-design of Pull List feature (and now called “NCBD”)

This week, mutant, sorcerer, inventor ánd warrior Forge is back with a brand new team, in X-Force, Vol. 7 #1. With a special guest appearance by fellow manic mutant and merc with a mouth Deadpool!
DC Comics brings us amazing animal antics in the furry first issue of the fur-bulously titled Super-Pets Special: Bitedentity Crisis, while in the dark corners of the comic universe we see Al Simmons go toe-to-toe with vampire leader Bludd’s new assassin in Spawn #355.
The CLZ content team – Rowdy, Justin, and Taco – has just completed the big weekly update to our Core online comic database. The latest releases, complete with cover images, artist details, and variant descriptions, are now available in your app. Scan your new comics on the Barcode tab, or check the NCBD tab to browse around all of the new releases.
Buckle up, comic enthusiasts! This New Comic Book Day on July 24, 2024, is bringing a smorgasbord of illustrated delights that’ll make your wallet weep and your bookshelf groan. Marvel’s serving up a double dose of snikt-tastic action with “Deadpool / Wolverine: WWIII #3“, because apparently, these two can’t get enough of each other even after starring in a blockbuster movie. Meanwhile, Captain America‘s shield is probably feeling neglected as he reaches his 11th issue, presumably fighting for truth, justice, and the American way of avoiding paper cuts.
But wait, there’s more! The Star Wars universe is expanding faster than a Hutt after an all-you-can-eat buffet, with “Star Wars: Darth Vader #48” hitting the shelves. One can only imagine Vader force-choking his way through 47 previous issues, his heavy breathing providing the perfect background music. And for those who like their comics with a side of Cowabunga, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Vol. 6 #1” is debuting with more variant covers (nearly 200!) than you can shake a bō staff at.
The CLZ content team, consisting of Rowdy, Justin, and Taco, has just completed their weekly update to our Core online comic database. This update includes the latest comic releases, complete with cover images, cover artist information, variant descriptions, and more. To access these new comics, simply open your Add Comics screen and start scanning barcodes.
For a different experience, you can also use the NCBD (New Comic Book Day) tab within the Add Comics screen. This tab provides a convenient, centralised view of all the newly released comics for this week in one place!
This week’s NCBD releases shows us the return of several strong leading ladies!
Sara Pezzini is back for revenge in Witchblade, Vol. 3 in a reimagining of the classic storyline. In Phoenix, Vol. 1 we see the return of Jean Grey, starring in a new galaxy-saving quest. And if that’s not all, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup Utonium are BACK in the brand new series The Powerpuff Girls. Whether you’re a fan of superhero shenanigans or mystical mysteries, this week’s comics are sure to leave you grinning like a Cheshire cat.
