What Are User Lists?

User Lists are personal collections you create to organize comics however you want — "Best Batman Runs", "To Read", "Favorite Artists", whatever. Every account comes with a built-in Wishlist that's always private and can't be deleted. Beyond that, you can create custom lists up to your account's limit.

What Goes in a List#

Each list holds one type of item, chosen when you create the list:

  • Issues, Series, Characters, Creators, Story Arcs, or Teams

You can't mix types in a single list — make separate lists instead.

Free vs PRO Limits#

Feature Free PRO
Custom lists Up to 10 Unlimited
Items per list Up to 100 Up to 500
Private custom lists No Yes
Private wishlist Yes Yes

List Features#

  • Ranked or unranked — decide if position matters
  • Public or private — control who can see it (PRO required for private custom lists)
  • Notes — add personal context to any item
  • Variants — for issue lists, specify a specific cover variant
  • Save and like — interact with other people's public lists
  • Reviews — leave reviews on public custom lists (not wishlists)

Finding Items in a List#

When viewing any list, use the search and sort controls at the top.

Search matches item names and filters in real time.

Sort by:

Sort Description
Position Your custom order (ranked lists)
Newest Most recently added first
Oldest Earliest added first
Name Alphabetical
Release date For issue lists

Browsing Public Lists#

The main lists page at versedb.com/dashboard/lists shows your own lists and lets you browse public lists from other users. Filter by entity type (issues, characters, etc.) and sort by newest, most popular, most saved, or top rated.
