Comics Day is a simple application to view all comic books and comic book related merchandise shipping each week.
View the major publishers (Marvel, DC, Image, and Dark Horse) as well as independents, along with merchandise such as statues, movies, toys, and posters.
The updated shipping list for each week is generally available Monday evenings of that week.
Downloading Shipping Lists:
The application will download the current weeks information as well as the following week upon start up and can manually be initiated by using the "pull to refresh" at the top of the Home screen. Note: Both of these actions will remove the check marks from all items.
Marking Items:
You can check mark items you plan to purchase when arriving at your local comic shop. Simply tap the item to toggle the check mark on and off. Check marked items will be added to the BuyList when you press the BuyList button. Once the items are added to the BuyList, the check marks are removed from the shipping list.
BuyList:
The BuyList is a summarized list of all of the items that have been marked. The view also gives a total cost and count for all items in the list, including tax and any additional discounts you may receive if these are entered into the Settings. Items marked PI ("Please Inquire") are grouped separately.
The BuyList is maintained by the user and is saved as a text file on your device. The BuyList is saved when: the BuyList button is pressed, leaving the BuyList or after editing the BuyList. You may also copy and share your BuyList via various methods.
Searching:
Search for specific items by scrolling to the top of the table and pulling down to reveal the Search Bar. Type text to search for a Title and press the Search button. Tap an item in the search results to add a check mark, then press the BuyList button to add it to your BuyList.
All items displayed in the app are not guaranteed to be in stores. Major holidays may delay shipping by one day, therefore always check with your local comic book dealer to verify availability.
