I'm preparing to do some integration work for a project I'm on, but seem to have hit an API limit. I don't want to get banned/blocked but would like to find a simpler way than trial-and-error to perform queries against the database.

The message I see on the ComicVine website is:

Your API key is currently blocked because you used more than one key at a time. Please stop doing that and wait 24 hours to use only one key.

But I'm only using my API key in the request, so I'm not sure why I'm seeing this message. The request I sent was:

https://comicvine.gamespot.com/api/issue/4000-599829/?api_key=[mykey]

Any help would be appreciated. If it helps, I'm writing in Java and found an outdated library called ComicVine-GrapeJuice but am not sure if it's useful.
