Tips For Taking Care Of Comic Books
- Store your comic books in polypropylene or mylar bags.
- Store your comic books upright and not in stacks. Since the comics are stapled, the stacks are always lopsided.
- To provide extra protection from bending while storage, use acid-free backboards.
- Wash your hands before reading comics. Your greasy hands might soil them.
- Do not store them in basements or attics. Store them in a place with an even temperature throughout, such as your closet.
- To protect your comics from pollutants and acid degradation, you can put micro-chamber papers between the front and back covers, and the interior pages.
- Always keep your comic box full.
