comiXology releases MobileSafari interface for comic browsing
While we're at it, I'm currently poking around for comic book collection software for the Mac (the folks are selling their house, and they asked me to clear the old collection out of their closet). So far, it seems like Comics 2 is the pick of the litter. Does anyone want to share a good tip on an app that will help me organize the few boxes of books I've got? I would love if Delicious Library did it, but while I'm sure it could handle my graphic novels, I doubt it would be able to do individual issues. Anyone have a recommendation?

For reading and collecting comics, use ComicBookLover

The response was basically "not gonna happen" due to the lack of solid comic bar code databases. But yeah, that would be a dream, just being able to use the iSight camera to catalog all my comics!
That said, there's something to be said for a straightforward "manual entry" solution, and Comics 2.0 seems to be quite nice! Thanks for the link!
If you don't mind a webapp rather than something on your machine, http://www.comicbookdb.com is pretty excellent. Think LibraryThing for comics...
