From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A comic book (often shortened to simply comic and sometimes called a funny book, comic paper or comic magazine) is a magazine made up of narrative artwork, often accompanied by dialog (usually in word balloons, emblematic of the comic book artform) and often including brief descriptive prose. The first comic book appeared in the United States of America in 1934, reprinting the earlier newspaper comic strips, which established many of the story-telling devices used in comics. The term "comic book" arose because the first comic books reprinted humor comic strips, but despite their name, comic books do not necessarily operate in humorous mode; most modern comic books tell stories in a variety of genres. The Japanese and European comic book markets demonstrate this clearly. In the United States the super-hero genre dominates the market, even though other genres also exist. From Wikipedia under the

I believe they are called "soft investments", and trying to treat them the same way as you would investing in stocks and the like is fool hardy. Some of the people answering have no idea what they're talking about. People think that just because some comics have gone up in value, all comics will, and that's simply not the case. The exact value of your comics will require you to research what exactly it is you have.

Q. I have a couple of boxes of comic books that I needed to store in the garage, and I was wondering if it was okay to store them there, without worrying about damaging them? Also, I have some that aren't in protective casing, and I was wondering if that would be an issue as well? No pun intended, hehe. Anyways, thanks in advance!

Hello , It would be best to insure their condition by protection from extremes in both heat and cold as well as the air which will discolor the paper .
