After the huge update for Comic Connect on Monday, I have another one for you, an improved Missing Comics screen. After we introduced the Missing Comics screen, about a year ago, we kept receiving the same two complaints from you all:
- It should not list my “On Order” comics as missing !!
- It should not list unreleased issues as missing !!
Both very good points, so with today’s update we are introducing 2 new settings.

Our agreement with GoCollect has ended, so in this update we have removed all GoCollect-related features.
Which means no more automatic comic values when you add comics and no more daily updates for values.
We fully understand this is a shock and a disappointment for you all. Trust me, we are very disappointed too, maybe even more so than you are. In any case, we sincerely apologize for this sudden loss of functionality.

At the same time, we created a new auto-login system, making submitting easier and more seamless.

We’re on a roll with the Connect development, so today we can release two new features for your Connect software:

Version 21.4 is now available for your Comic Collector software, with a nice graphical update for your folder panel. The folder panel now show horizontal bars in the background behind the folder entries, representing the “relative size” of the folder, that is, relative to the biggest folder in your collection.
Fixed:

Easier Columns & Sorting / remove Core covers / more Field Defaults
We have finally been able to free up web-developer Stijn from several long running “back-end” projects, so he is making good progress on all kinds of smaller Comic Connect improvements.

- More fields available in Field Defaults
Fixed:
- Comic details page: Purchase Store could be shown twice
- Comic details page: Buttons to modify Read It/My Rating have been added to the Clear templates
- Add by Series: Improved layout of Search Suggestions
- Series view is now always in list view (could be images in the past)
- Add Manually screen was wrongly named “Add Book”
- iPad: Main screen: When searching folders the tap area for the “X” to remove the search was wrong
- iPad: Main screen: Filtering in Series folders: Keyboard could disappear while typing
- iOS10: Add by Barcode tab wasn’t available
- iOS10: iPad: Images view would crash the app
- iOS10: iPad: After tapping a comic and tapping back, the list could disappear
Today, we have updated your Comic Connect software for you, with two nice improvements in one go:
- Enhanced Collection Status filter, now including On Order, For Sale, etc..
- A new Update from Core tool
Fixed:
- Date fields didn’t always transfer correctly
A nice new v21.3 update is available for Comic Collector now, in which we introduce a new super useful database management tool, called Transfer Field Data (new in the Tools menu).
In short, this tool lets you copy field values from one field to another, in batch, so for your entire database, or for a selection of comics.
Fixed:
- When removing multiple comics, the app could crash
We’ve received a couple of reports that the checkboxes in the Add Comics screen were very slow in big lists of results. That has now been fixed in this new build!
Fixed:
- More responsive checkboxes in Add Comics screen
- The Sort button in the main screen would sometimes not open the Sort Settings screen
It is important to have your local comic entries linked to the corresponding entries in our Core online comic database, especially when syncing to the CLZ Cloud and/or the CLZ Comics mobile app. Because a correct Core link is what gives you all automatic comic details, like cover images, values, creators, characters, plots, etc..
All comic entries you added through the Add Comics from Core screen, will of course be linked with a Core entry automatically. However, if you added a comic manually, or if you imported a list of comics, e.g. from a CSV file, some of your entries may arrive “unlinked”. In which case you would need to do the linking afterwards.
Previously, linking comics with Core was done in an old and clunky screen, based on a very old version of the Add Comics from Core screen. But not anymore!
As of today, Comic Collector has a completely new Link Comics with Core screen.
