Where catalog information on Chase The Arc comes from.

Metron

Issue, series, creator, character, publisher, and related bibliographic data are supplied by Metron. Metron is the primary catalog source. Please support their project if you rely on this data.

Grand Comics Database

Some missing on-sale or cover dates are filled from the Grand Comics Database, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0. We use GCD for sparse date backfill only, not as a full index dump on this site.

Publishers and creators

Cover images, characters, logos, and story content belong to their respective copyright holders. We display covers to identify issues in a catalog, not as a substitute for buying or reading the comics.

User contributions

Approved issue submissions are provided by Chase The Arc users. Creator biographies, when present, are written by editors.

Infrastructure

The site runs on Cloudflare (Worker, D1, and R2). Accounts use Clerk with email sign-in. Optional Google Analytics 4 loads only after you click Accept, so we can understand which pages are used. Nothing is sent before that.
