The clean way to track your comic book collection
Key issues, first appearances, full runs, and a stack of slabs — a comic collection is more than a long-box. Frame keeps every issue cataloged with the data that matters: title, issue number, publisher, year, grade, and grader, paid against current market. Filter to your keys. Sort by grade. Pull an insurance export without rebuilding a spreadsheet.
Built for how comic books are actually tracked.
Comics live and die on the issue number and the grade. A run looks like a run until you realize one issue in it is a first appearance worth more than the other fifty combined — so Issue # is a first-class field, not buried in the title. Grade carries the grader with it (CGC 9.8 and a raw 'NM' are not the same claim), and 'Raw' is a valid value so ungraded books sort cleanly next to slabs. Paid vs. Est. value stays split so a key you bought before a movie announcement shows its real spread.

Common questions.
How do I track graded slabs and raw books together?+
The Grade field shows the grade for slabbed books (CGC 9.8, CBCS 9.6, PGX) and 'Raw' for ungraded ones, with the Grader field calling out who graded it. Filter, sort, or group by either — see all your 9.8s, or every raw key waiting on a submission.
Can I track a full run without entering every issue by hand?+
Quick-add reads the cover for title, issue, and publisher, so logging a run goes fast. Most collectors enter keys in full detail and batch the common filler issues with lighter data, then flag the keys with a tag so they never get lost in the run.
Does Frame pull values from GoCollect or GPA?+
Not automatically. You enter values manually from GoCollect, GPAnalysis, or recent eBay sold listings — which keeps you accurate for books between grade tiers or with restoration notes. Automated comps for graded keys are on the roadmap.
How do I handle variants, newsstand editions, and printings?+
Use the Title or a tag for the variant ('Newsstand', '2nd Print', 'McFarlane variant'). Newsstand copies and later printings carry different values than direct editions, so keeping them distinct keeps your totals honest.
Will my insurer accept Frame's export?+
Yes. The PDF export lists every issue, its grade, value, and attached photos or certs — accepted by most carriers as the basis for a scheduled-items rider. For high-value keys, attach the CGC label photo and a recent sold comp so an adjuster can verify it.
