I've just tried scraping a bunch of comic files, including the Snart one that 
you had problems with in the log.  But everything seems to work fine, so so far 
I cannot duplicate your problem.

Looking more closely at the log, it seems like somehow you have an old version 
of at least one file (cvconnection.py).  The scraper code is calling a 
three-argument function that exists in cvconnection.py version 1.0.86, but for 
some reason doesn't exist in your version of cvconnection.py.

I'm at a loss to explain why your scraper code appears to be only 'partially' 
updated to 1.0.86.  Are you manually editing the scraper's .py files?  Do you 
have other plugins installed that might be overwriting some of the scraper's 
.py files?  (They're not supposed to do that, but nonetheless some plugins that 
are based off of Comic Vine Scraper can cause problems when installed at the 
same time as the scraper.)

As for fixing the problem, the only thing I can think of is for you to 
uninstall and reinstall the scraper.  If that doesn't work, try uninstalling 
you other plugins and only installing the scraper, so we can rule out the 
possibility that the error is being caused by a different plugin.

Thanks for the quick response. I am not manually editing the .py files. I don't 
mess with anything I don't understand. I did delete the scraper folders after 
uninstalling the scraper and then reinstalled but got the same error. 

I did not try to uninstall any other plugins. I went ahead and did a system 
restore on my computer and went back to an older version of both Comicrack and 
the scraper and it seems to be working fine this way. I will just leave it that 
way until I have to upgrade either one.

Thanks for checking into the issue for me, and I am using my own API number so 
no worries there. Excellent work you do by the way.

Looks like there's nothing left to do here, so closing this issue.
