Is there a reasonably complete online database of sf works?

What about other media, such as comics, and radio programs?

(SF as in speculative fiction: science fiction, alternate history, fantasy… Note that I'm looking for a database aiming at exhaustivity in its domain, not a selection based on notability or tastes.)

If that doesn't fit your needs, I could always provide more… but this should help on your quest.

I would also add Fantastic Fiction as another source for written SF.

O wikipedia portal on Sci-Fi is a good start. It's not the best, but it is a very good one.

I think it is a main starting point to develop a full SF database.

http://sf-encyclopedia.com/ I found Science Fiction Encyclopedia to be most fruitful! They even have artists in the mix of literary greats; the list goes on extensively.

Although still currently incomplete, Elders of Genova is working very hard at creating the world's first unabridged encyclopedia of science fiction and fantasy. It is unique in that it also catalogs the fantastic elements in each work and allows you to do cross-medium searches for similar forms of entertainment. E.g. you can click on Star Trek and see that they have laser weapons in that franchise, then you can see all of the other works that have laser weapons as well.

As a user generated encyclopedia, even though it is still in early stages, it is growing very fast.
