Comicbooked! Directory!
Find the
Comic Book Industry
All of It
The ComicBooked! Directory! is a free, searchable, community-powered portal of comic book businesses and events — built by and for the industry.
Currently in Beta — Comic industry and industry-adjacent comic pros welcome.
Why It exists
The Comics Industry Has Always Deserved a Better Directory
For too long, the tools available for finding comic businesses and events were limited, incomplete, and controlled by people other than the businesses themselves. When Diamond Comic Distributors collapsed and its Comic Shop Locator disappeared, the gap became impossible to ignore.
But that gap existed long before Diamond’s bankruptcy — it just became more visible. The ComicBooked! Directory is built to fill it properly. Free to list, community-governed, and designed for the entire independent comics ecosystem.

Visibility Is Power
A Directory Built to Shift
Who Gets Found
For Black comic pros and Black women comic pros in particular — visibility has always been a structural problem, not a talent one. The infrastructure that existed was never designed with their careers in mind. The ComicBooked! Directory is.
Own Your Presence
Your listing belongs to you. You write it, update it, and decide how you’re represented. No algorithm decides whether you get found.
Filter for Community
Readers and collaborators who want to support Black-owned, LGBTQIA+-owned, and woman-owned businesses can find you directly.
Surface Overlooked Work
A public, searchable listing puts your work in front of anyone who’s looking — on your terms, not a platform’s.
Build Industry Relationships
Retailers find publishers to stock. Publishers find creators to collaborate with. The directory connects the ecosystem.
Promote Your Events
Black-centered conventions and campaigns get visibility in front of an audience built to care about this work.
Community Governed
Leadership is centered in Black communities and historically excluded groups. That’s not a marketing line — it’s the ownership structure.
