Hi All!
Total newbie here but kudos to the OP mschmidt - This post is an amazing wealth of information!
I have just started collecting - Huge fan of The Walking Dead franchise so I decided to start collecting The Walking Dead Deluxe series - Already have all the #'s 1&2 cover variants and a few of the foil variants, #1 gold foil, Negan Lives bronze and silver foil covers, and I am looking into protecting my collection properly. Talked to my comic book store guy and he suggested putting the comics into mylar sleeves with no back boards, and then sliding that into a slightly larger bag with a back board in the larger bag. I actually though that was an interesting idea as it allows you to slide the inner mylar out to enjoy both the front and back covers without removing the comic from it's mylar bag. I don't think I would do it with all my comics, maybe just the more expensive ones... I think for my regular covers I will just go with Mylites2 and Full-Backs.
Just wondering if anyone has done this method of double bagging before? What did you think? Good idea or bad? Would it be better to use Mylites4 for the inner mylar bag maybe? Then I was thinking Half-Backs and Archives for the outers...
Cheers from Canada!
