ComicsPriceGuide.com began in 1995 as a tribute to the memory of Tim Beck, who died of leukemia. Tim was a close friend of founder Bryan Neely. Initially the website was named Marvel World and featured data and related information exclusively focused on Marvel Comics.

Over the past 13 years, with the help of numerous collectors, fans, and comic aficionados, the site now known as ComicsPriceGuide.com has emerged as the online comic book community that it is today. The website includes hundreds of publishers and thousands of individual comic book titles. The site has integrated a wide variety of technology since being founded and was recently named by Apple as their featured web application of the day for the iPhone on February 25, 2008.

The company's use of technology and its ability to preserve real sales data is ideally suited to meet the challenges of the growing and ever changing comic book marketplace.
