I have multiple calibre libraries, one of which is made up of thousands of comic books. I would like to be able to include the illustrator as part of the metadata, but outside of creating my own custom column or including it in the author field using "illustrated by," I can't seem to figure out if there's already a way to do it. Is there a built in metadata field for "illustrator"? I know the ONIX metadata format includes illustrator, editor, and translator as part of the contributor data, but I can't tell if calibre reads from onix format or is organized to conform to it. It seems that if it's an industry standard, it would behoove calibre to use it, especially since in many books the illustrator, editor, and translator has a greater role than the author. Of course, it could just be that I don't know what I'm doing.
