How do you store your comics?

Lone Wolf · 12-20-2003, 02:14 PM

I'm looking for relatively cheap, effective, and space saving way to store my comics for Christmas. Any further advice on storing/protecting my comics would be welcomed. Thanks in Advance

Filing things? Maybe you could post a picture?

Bagged, Boarded, in a comic box (all available and fine comic retailers near you)

Don't know the right word for it, the things where you store paper etc. I don't have a digi camera nor scanner, so can't post any pics.

Same. I also have dividers dividing them by distributor(Archie, Mirage, DW) and even more dividers dividing them buy volumes, nad specials and stuff. (IE: Mirage: Vol. 1, 2, 4, specials Archie: regular, mutanimals, etc.)

I have a box for each comic I have (IE, one box for Spider-man, one for Daredevil, one for Batman, one for Usagi, one for TMNT, ect) and then I store them in chronological order.

Cool, where have you bought these plastic thingies

BTW, what's the name of them???
HEHE

I keep my comics in the TMNT casette suitcase from the old show. I haven't got so many yet. Although there's no more space so i could use a good way to store them

Great Topic

*MrPliggins* · 12-21-2003, 05:11 PM

I keep my comics bagged and boarded, back to back (two in one bag). Also, In alphabetical order and in comic boxes (except the ones that won't fit...i need a new comic box

For my oversized comics such as the early TMNT mirage issues and some others, I just keep them in a rather large shoebox (I don't have many of those types of comics)

**Kali** · 12-21-2003, 05:22 PM

I keep all my comics bagged, but only a few are boarded. They are currently kept in a underbed box, where else? Under my bed. I wish I had a better way to store them, but I don't.

i made them =)

buy the sheets of plastic, cut it to size, then get a plastic bender. it heats up the plastic at the part i want, then i bend it really quick and hold it in place for 10-15 seconds. waa-laa!

Michaelangelo|DAH · 12-22-2003, 09:46 AM

COOL

Thanks

Since I have very few TMNT comics they're (currently) just sitting in a pile on my shelf. All bagged and boarded of course. I've got a normal box my mom found for me for the rest of my comics. I just cut the top off and it's a little wider than a normal size comic so they fit perfectly. I've only got about 200 comics anyways so I don't need much room yet. I'll be getting something specifically for my TMNT comics when I get some more though.

MikesPizzaShack · 12-26-2003, 01:33 AM
