Metron

A community created comic-book database.

🤔 Motivation

Currently, the only comic book database the provides a REST API for users is Comic Vine. Unfortunately, since it's a corporately-owned service, the community that uses it has no control over the amount of resources provided to maintain it or ensure it's continued accessibility. So, I started Metron as an alternative to Comic Vine and as an educational exercise.

🤝 Contributing

If you're interested in helping add comics to the database, head over to https://metron.cloud and read the Editing Guidelines before signing up for an account.

If you got knowledge of Python, Django or System Administration, I'm always looking for help with the technical side of the project, so please contact me.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please head over to the discussion page.

The project is fairly new compared to the other databases, so it might not meet your needs. Some alternatives include:
