If you turn on Catalog Fields, there is a "Release Date" field that can be 
filled in with the "In Store Date" from ComicVine.

Version 1.0.59 will scrape the "Cover Date" into ComicRack's regular 
"published" date fields, and the "Release Date" into ComicRack's "Released 
Date" field (in the Catalog tab).

More information here, how do we deal with "fuzzy" dates?

For now, the scraper only scrapes the year and month of the "published date" 
fields, because of the API problem that I linked to in my comment above.  The 
ComicVine's "released date" does not allow fuzzy values, though, so it can 
still be scraped in its entirety.

Fixed for 1.0.59
