Also, a decent collections manager to check out is GCstar. It is in the repositories for easy installation. Their home site is http://www.gcstar.org/ .

Gnome Comics Organiser (GCO) is in the repos.

titles, publishers, types, writers, pencilers, inkers, cover prices, current
prices, comments, and much more. It also allows you to sort the list in
various ways.
