4. Linking Databases in Comic Management System V1
Savvy Notion users can extend the Comic Management System by linking a database on any page to share and display duplicated data across other pages! This makes tracking and managing tasks and projects consistent and efficient.
To know more about linking databases in Notion, please watch the short 3-minute YouTube video presentation below:
5. Summary
The Comic Management System V1 has over 20 databases and numerous subpages within top-level pages for use in comic production work. It is a cloud-based management tool built on the robust Notion platform that can be accessed using a web browser or mobile and tablet devices.
Both free and paid Notion users can utilize the Comic Management System V1 simply by accessing the web link listed at the top of this page and then using the Duplicate feature to copy the entire Template into their workspace. A YouTube video above has been included with this page to walk you through the process.
As always with Notion, everything can be customized to your liking and specifics merely by adjusting the parameters of each database or changing the names of individual modules within each page. Skilled Notion users can link databases together to seamlessly share data across multiple pages. Please watch the YouTube video above for more info.
The Comic Management System V1 is not just for Comic Creators and Editors. It can be tailored for other publishing endeavors such as Webcomic/Manhwa production, Manga production, Magazine publishing, or Book Novel publishing. For example, you can rename the page titled Issues to Volumes, Episodes, or Chapters.
If you find the Comic Management System V1 useful for your comic project needs, please do me a favor and follow my Social Media accounts. I am an independent comic creator who is trying hard to develop and launch a creator-owned comic book series while juggling a day job and family life. It will help my upcoming comic book series a lot if you could support my Social Media accounts.
Good luck—and stay creative!
