**ComicBase** is a [computer program](/source/Computer_program) for tracking [comic book](/source/Comic_book) collections. It was created in 1992[2] by [Peter Bickford](/source/Peter_Bickford) as an [Apple Macintosh](/source/Apple_Macintosh) program. A Windows version was introduced in 1996.

Its database includes pricing and notes on over 800,000[3] individual comic book issues, and allows users to sell their comics online at a website marketplace called Atomic Avenue.
