Amazon.com description: Product Description: No publication in the history of collecting has included more information on more comic books than the Standard Catalog of[registered] Comic Books. Years in the making, this is the "Manhattan Project" of comics collecting books, covering more than 180,000 comic books published in North America since 1900! The catalog lists not just the issue and after-market price, but also lists the writers and artists who created them as well. Plus, it includes the original print runs for thousands of comics, as well as the number of comics graded by Comics Guaranty Corporation. Every comic book has a checklist box for easy use as a handy collector's utility - and this book is great reading, with page after page of reviews of some of the most famous (and infamous) comics in history.
