Title: Comic Book Storage
Post by: Sabrina Peyton on March 15, 2006, 09:57:41 AM
What does everyone keep thier comics in?

I know Russell H and Peyton and I use Ikea's Billy bookcases. But what's everyone else use?

I've got a big box under my bed held together by mostly duct tape.  It's about as wide as comics are long, so I can store them on their sides.

In about 20 longboxes.. variously under the bed (it's a big bed) and stacked in a cupboard .

I use Rubbermaid 5 gallon cases. They are sturdy and stack nicely. They also keep most of the air, water, and light out. I need to buy two more. I'm out of space.

I leave em Scattered around my room in no real order.

Some of them live in Boxs like my Lobo Collection has a Home inside a nice Wine Box I took from work one day.

Billy bookcases eh? Funny you should mention those, got a few around the place...

That said there's too many comics for this as an entire solution so I recommend:

Most recent stuff: Billy bookcase

Older stuff: Really Useful Boxes 18L size, will take a 100-150 comics laying down and they slide nicely under a bed or can be stacked.

When we get the final book case for the library I'll get Sabrina to take a photo of the madness.

The only things not out are my Justice Leagues and PAD Aquaman as they are well read and falling to bits in a box upstairs.

Do so! Were it not for somebody else's clutter we might have more space, but since I'm still encouraging someone to have a first-time-in-a-decade-clear-out we don't.

Still, have to like Billy bookcases - stuff I can actualy put together without too much cursing. Yep, me and DIY don't get on.
