I find Calibre to be quite usefull to manage Comics and this is a lot due to your plugin that allows migration of ComicRack metadata into Calibre.
Thanks a lot for that.
As new user i've got 3 remarks that could be, in my opinion, usefull in the plugin :
1 - when reading author's names from the several available fields (writer, designer, inker, color, lettering, ...) could be efficient to collect all these names in Calibre main "Authors" field --> this would allow to get a single category to search from in categories menu.
2 - could also be interesting to collect in a "writer" user defined field the "writer" field (instead of collecting it in "Authors") ==> this could allow to display "writer" instead of "author" field name in book detail area
3 - finally, would be usefull to extract (not sure that it is easy ...) a page size (in pixels) from cbz or cbr file (lets say value extracted from page #5. Not 1st one as it is cover and could be at different definition) ==> this could allow to display in book detail area quality of pages (for instance "2560x3570 pix")
Thanks again for your great work.

1 and 2:
I won't change the current behavior, but you can achieve what you want with a custom column build from other columns. Just fill your custom column with the data from all the different creators fields.
3: I would have to look into it, maybe in a future version.
