Yeah and then into a cupboard. Shame as it hides all that great cover art away.
Some images from last year, so yeah, long box and cupboard data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

I steal empty paper boxes from work & put mine in there...they lay flat rather than stood up like in Longboxes.
Done it for years & they do the job for me & best of all they are free data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

I use them as well - you can see three in the picture above. A bit of packing tape around the bottom to strengthen, and they are a very cheap alternative. Not as good as a box as they are not stackable, but once I have two papaer boxes full, I know its time to buy another comic box. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Lol yeah just saw them actually data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
I stack mine ok.
I pilfer the lids as well & like I said I lay the comics down so they stack rather than stand up so I put the lid on then stack them up data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Thanks for the kind words! Picked up Batman Year One as I've heard that's something of an essential purchase. Looks good.
It is indeed & it's a cracking read.
If you like that then there's a whole world of must read Batman titles & I'd recommend the following...
Dark Knight Returns
Long Halloween
Killing Joke
The Man Who Laughs
Earth One
Death in the Family (Not to be confused with the current: Death of The Family Arc)
Gotham By Gaslight
Hush
All essential reading.
It's hard to recommend much outside of those until you find what you like & then start working from there but almost every character in every universe has a few must read titles.
Anyway as Theydon said welcome aboard, hope you have the correct change...this is some seriously expensive ride data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
