Resources

A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project is available. See also the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.

Good databases:

  • Grand Comics Database - good breadth and depth. Templates: {{gcdb}} and {{gcdb series}}
  • Comic Book DB - similar good coverage with a cleaner and more accessible front end. Template: {{comicbookdb}}
  • Big Comic Book DataBase - useful as a back-up but coverage isn't as wide but it may be deeper for some titles
  • CBDB - another option but a bit less user-friendly

Useful for news, reviews and interviews:

  • Newsarama - good for news updates and announcements as well as interviews
  • Comic Book Resources - ditto
  • Silver Bullet Comic Books (soon to change its name - possibly through confusion with Silver Bullet Comics - we've had problems with that see the deletion at Silver Bullet Comics)
  • Broken Frontier - can be another useful source for reviews
