Searches
are not case sensitive, so super hero will return the
exact same results as SUPER HERO, or Super Hero.
By default,
the standard search form found at the top of every page (like the one
above), will return comics containing any of the terms you enter, so super
hero will return comics containing the term super,
or comics containing the term hero, or
comics containing both the terms super and hero.
The following
search operators will allow you to manipulate this behavior and perform
advanced searches from the standard search form.
| Operator: |
How
to use it: |
" |
Use
double quotes to enclose a phrase. For example, "super
hero" will return all comics containing the phrase
super hero, but not super duper hero,
or the hero who also happens to be super. |
+ |
Use
+ directly in front of a term to make it mandatory.
For example, super +hero will return comics
that definitely contain the term hero, but
each of those comics may or may not contain the term super.* |
- |
Use
- directly in front of a term to exclude it.
For example, -super hero will return comics
that contain the term hero, but none of those
comics will contain the term super.* |
|
*The
+ and - operators may also be used in conjunction
with a phrase. For example +"super hero" villains
will return comics that definitely contain the phrase super hero,
but each of those comics may or may not contain the term villains.
