Comic Collector turns WordPress into a full-featured comic collection manager for collections large or small.

Core features

  • Catalog title, issue number, publisher, grade, variant, purchase price, value, and more
  • Pricing tools using configured market-data services
  • Public collection display with search, filters, A-Z navigation, and pagination
  • Optional WooCommerce integration for selling comics from your collection
  • CSV, XML, and PDF export for insurance, inventory, and sharing
  • Bulk management tools, custom fields, and community annotations
  • REST API, Gutenberg blocks, and Elementor widgets
  • Multi-currency support, PWA features, and theme controls
  • Optional AI features on WordPress 7.0+ through a configured WordPress AI connector
  • Extension support for additional collection workflows

Use the [comcol_collection] shortcode to display a searchable collection on any page. Visitors can browse by title or publisher, and comics for sale can link to WooCommerce product pages.

Pricing features can use configured services such as eBay, GoCollect, and PriceCharting. External services are optional unless you choose to enable the feature that uses them. See the External Services section below for details.
