As we announced on our social channels earlier, CLZ Comics v10.0 is coming soon. And today, we can finally reveal what the big v10 feature will be:

Adding Comics by scanning the cover!

In version 10, we are introducing a new way to find comics in our CLZ Core and then add them.

  • No need to scan the barcode
  • No need to type series title or issue number
  • Just take a picture of the cover and bam!
    The app will show the matching comics from our Core!

This new method of adding comics is ideal for:

  • Comics from the pre-barcode era (before 1976)
  • Direct Editions without barcode
  • Modern comics without barcode
  • Bagged and boarded comics that have the barcode on the back cover

But of course, the cover scanning works on any comic, including ones that do have a barcode on the front cover.

Sneak Preview screenshots

  1. Take a picture of the cover
  2. Let the app scan the cover
  3. Pick from the matching comics

ETA: within 2 weeks!
