Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iCollect Everything at 4.6 against Comics Price Guide's 3.9. iCollect Everything also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (14K vs 14). Comics Price Guide's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
