Well, keep checking back here at the blog for updates... I've just pushed out dev sneak peek ver 1.2 - this will give you an idea of where I'm headed with the data maintenance portion of the web site, which seams like where the most development effort is. I've tried several different comic book cataloging software packages none of which have been very satisfactory. Either they fall down in their User Interface, their ability to load series & issues or general usefulness after you get the data loaded. GalaxyKing, thanks for the kind words…

I've been trying several different ways to gather this information. I've been using different strategies for databasing my comics for years, but recently started using the UPC code. It's a little trickier than I'd hoped but your solution makes it look pretty easy. Is your series ID number a random number or is it generated from something? I've been breaking down the UPC codes and using the parts (ie first six as CompanyID) to link tables together. Most Excellent sir! I’ve been trying several different ways to gather this information.
