Comic Book Short House consists
of two parts: A two piece reinforced "outer shell"
formed from white 275 lb-test cardboard with handles
at either side and a Sliding
heavey-duty short box (sold seperately or use your
own). Each Short House holds approximately 125 comics.
And the long hold about 250+ comics.
The Comic Box House Sytem allows
you to slide an individual
comic box like a file drawer. This combination allows
you to stack boxes six high, while still being able
to instantly access any one boxes' contents without
rearranging stacks of heavy comic boxes.

Ever since the dawning of the
Marvel Age of heroes, the Skrulls

insidious interlopers in the affairs
not just of Earth, but the whole
universe. Now, get the Skrulls'
side of the story! Who are they,
what drives them, and what are
their ultimate goals? Who are
their heroes, and who are their
villains? And what will become
of their clash between religion
and modernity - manifest in their
relentless pursuit of the Earth
as the final prize - when it spills
over into universal mayhem? SKRULLS!
helps answer these questions and
gives you the clues to ask even
more! Featuring detailed information
about the full expanse of Skrull
history - including biographical
data of classic Skrulls through
the ages, reprints of key moments
from Skrull history and original
material that will help form a
deeper understanding of the Skrull
race...all from a Skrull perspective.
