Am I able to get access to items and archetypes from the comics in Hero Lab?
Stuff like the sword-devil ranger archetype. http://www.archivesofnethys.com/Arch...%20Sword-Devil |

It depends.
Possibility #1: I'm not familiar with the comics, but if the archetypes and items used in the comics are derived from the rule books, then yes, you can get access to them. I believe the cost for the core rule book is $35, then you would have to purchase whichever supplemental material contains the archetypes and items you wish to use. Possibility #2: There is a community pack that you can download for free. The community pack contains content from various sources. I suppose it's possible that these may include content from the comics. Possibility #3: If the content is unique to the comics (which I doubt), and does not exist in the community pack, then it can be entered manually. It's possible someone else has already done this for some of the content and may be willing to share. If you can give us some examples of which archetypes and items you're interested in, we can tell you if they're available, and in which supplements. |

I think the more recent stuff from the comics back matter is exclusive (for example the archetype the OP is mentioning). Some other things are pure fluff, and at least 1 monster had found its way to a bestiary later.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I have HeroLab already and a few of the source books. Is there a guide somewhere on how I can download and activate the community pack? I've seen a few things that have been exclusively from the comics. It's not a big deal since I don't think I'll be using any. But it would be cool to build Red Sonja and Tarzan in HeroLab |

There's been talk about wanting a Worldscape Data Package before (here and here) but as far as I know nothing ever came of it.
