- Sync with CLZ Cloud: A crash could occur during downsyncing
After the huge version 9.0 update back in November 2023, our mobile team has been focusing on two big v9.0 updates for our CLZ Movies and CLZ Games apps.
But… we’re back working on CLZ Comics now, bringing you a nice v9.1 update, with two often requested features:
- Use Edit Multiple to set Creators and Characters for multiple comics in one go
- Tap a creator name in comic details to instantly see all comics he/she worked on
Next to that, we are working to improving the barcode scanning, this is now live for Android in this update. Coming up for iOS.
NCBD! This week brings us 516 new releases and 223 actual new unique issues. Our eyes are on X-Force #50 and Monstress with both titles having their milestone issue this week.

It is Wednesday again, always the craziest day at the CLZ HQ. We always try to prepare as many releases up front, which works pretty well for DC, but then lots of variants and exclusives are only revealed on NCBD itself, so that is a challenge each and every week.
This week, we see only 177 actual unique new issues, but because of all the variants, the total number of releases comes at 441! All available in your Add Comics screen now.

Wednesday means: New Comics! Looking at our list by release date, we’re seeing 347 new releases today. Not counting variants, the total comes at 155 new unique issues.
Rowdy called in sick today, so completing all of today’s releases was up to Justin and Taco. But the work was just completed. All 347 new releases are now listed in Core, with the actual cover art, variant descriptions, creator information, etc..
New Check Value screen – quickly check CovrPrice values without having to add the comic to your database first
Up until today, the CovrPrice integration has been all about getting values for the comics in your collection. Super useful of course, but… since launch (back in October 2022), a common question from CovrPrice subscribers has been:
“How can I quickly check the value of a comic that is not in my collection?”
And they’re right. There’s other situations in which you may want to check a comic’s actual value, e.g. when you are looking at a comic you may want to buy.
Until now, our recommendation has always been: “Either use the CovrPrice.com website, OR, create a “Temp” collection in your app and add the comic there so that you can see the value”.
But not anymore! Your Comic Connect software now includes a new “Check Value” screen, that lets you quickly check a value of a comic, either by scanning its barcode, or by using the super-fast issue search. Just set it to Raw or Slabbed, pick a grade and go!
Yep, your favorite (and most expensive?) day of the week again: New Comic Book Day. Lots of opportunities to spend more money today, with 172 new issues and a total 389 new releases when counting all variants.
Rowdy, Justin and Taco just finished adding all 389 new releases to our Core online comic database. All entries have been made as complete as possible, with the actual cover art, variant descriptions, creator information (with correct Cover Artists listed for all variants), etc.. etc…
NCBD Week One for 2024! We thought that last years last NCBD was slow, but this week it is even worse. Only 366 new releases. Leaving out variants, the number comes to 156 unique new issues.

We’re closing in on the end of the year, so it is time for the
CLZ Comics Wrap-Up 2023!
We have done some queries on our Core online comic database to gather popularity stats, based on usage of the CLZ comic database app and sofware. Using the results of those queries, CLZ Justin created this nice infographic with top 10 lists.
Enjoy!
This it, the very last New Comic Book Day of 2023! This “between X-Mas and New Year” week, we only have half of the CLZ Team at the office, so we were quite happy to see that today was one of the smallest NCBDs of the year, with only 460 new releases. That is, when counting all variants. Without counting variants, the total comes to 181 actual new issues.
Rowdy and Justin did all the work this week and just an hour ago, they finished adding all 460 new releases to our Core online comic database. All entries have been made as complete as possible, with the actual cover art, variant descriptions, creator information (with correct Cover Artists listed for all variants), etc.. etc…
Phew, finally a “slower week”, with “only” 547 new releases. For a total of 273 actual new issues.
All of them have just been added to our Core online comic database by the CLZ Content Team (Rowdy, Justin and Taco). They have made the entries as complete as possible, with the actual cover art, variant descriptions, creator information (with correct Cover Artists listed for all variants), etc.. etc…
CLZ Comics 9 Feature Hilite: two new tools for quickly finding an issue
Here it is, the 3rd and final “v9 feature hilite” email. Today’s email is about two new tools we added for quickly finding a specific issue in your database:
- Issue Search: use the search box top right to search for a specific issue, e.g. “amazing 362”
- Jump to Issue button (aka, the “sniper” button”): tap, enter issue number, bam you’re there.
BTW: if you missed them, you can still read the first two v9 feature hilite emails on our CLZ blog:
- The new Check Value screen for quick checking a CovrPrice value, without having to add the comic to your app.
- The new Collections Tab Bar, for easily switching between collections using tabs at the bottom of your screen.
Over 600 (!!) new releases on this week’s New Comic Book Day! To be precise, 601 total variants, for 296 actual new issues.
