Introduction

Comic Collector's Wish List allows you to easily keep track of comics you desire, but don't yet own. You can add comics directly to your wish list and quickly move them to your collection. You can quickly switch between your wish list and comics you already own using Comic collector's Collection Status filters. With our CLZ mobile apps you can also export your wish list to a mobile device.

Collection Status Filters

You can control the Collection Status of comics within your database using the Collection Status radio buttons, found in the Add/Edit Comic screen.

There are two main distinctions.

  1. Collection
  2. Wish List

To switch between your main collection and you wish list, use the icons in the bottom left corner of Comic Collector's main screen.

Or click Search > In Collection Status

Adding to your Wish List

The easiest way to add Comics to your Wish List is via the Add Comics Automatically screen. In the bottom right corner of the Add Automatically screen, you have two radio buttons. Use these to define whether a comic will be added to your collection or to your wish list.

When you add a comic to your collection and put it on your wish list, an icon will appear next to the comic in your Main List as well as in the Detail Template.

  • The indicators are enabled by default, to disable them, uncheck the box.
