I finally bought a proper short box for my favorite run and it changed my whole system
For years I kept my comics in old cardboard boxes from the comic shop. They were free, but they sagged and the lids never fit right. Last month I decided to spend about $25 on a single plastic short box from BCW, just for my complete 'Daredevil: Born Again' run. Putting those books in there, seeing them stand up straight with a clear lid, it hit me. I was treating these stories I love like old magazines, not the art they are. That one box made my messy closet stack look sad. Now I want to replace them all, but that's a lot of boxes. Has anyone else done this switch slowly, a few boxes at a time? How do you decide which runs get the good boxes first?
