I will say that I have been personally using Comic Capsules for 6 months and I absolutely love them! Everything you mentioned, for me, puts them head and shoulders above comparable products or even CGC slabs (when it comes to price and UV protection.) Also, I would mention for anybody that might be timid about sliding a high value silver age book in due to how snug the fit is, buckle up here, the backs come off! This allows you to place your book inside, rather than slide it. Then clip it back in place, perfect every time. My only issue with Comic Capsule is that they don't have golden age or magazine sizes...yet. Great review and great video, John!
Doug, thank you so much for the info! I had no idea the backs came off. It is great to know you are already using and really enjoy them! I was so impressed that they provide UV protection. If other vendors would use the same UV protected materials, we can all feel more confident displaying out books for longer periods. I should be doing a zoom with the execs at Comic Capsule next week some time, and will be bringing up the request for larger sizes. I agree. Magazine and golden age alternatives would be amazing. Those were already on my ask list lol. Thanks again brother! Your comments are very much appreciated!
Great review John. You’re very fair and thorough. I’m new into collecting comics and have been trying to figure out a way to hang them. Problem solved!
Great review! Very thorough and helpful. I'm leaning towards the comic capsule for some of my favorite books. Still have to think about those labels though to see how I want to handle that. Nice solution you came up with but not sure I want to seal off the top. I'll have to chew on that for a bit.
Thanks so much for your comment my friend and I totally understand. I actually get a little overly cautious when using A4 sticker paper. If you forgive the obvious pun, A4 is so darn sticky…I feel I have very little control. I use a lot and am relatively confident using it, but on the new Comic Capsule surface…I was overly cautious, and as you can see…because the flip-up part is actually not meant to get a sticker on it…once I “affixed” the sticker, the result was not totally smooth. It looks good, just not perfect. That’s another reason I gave the point for Labels to Comic Skins. But no doubt…both options are really spectacular. If you end out trying 1 or two of each, you’ll see both offer advantages…both solutions are really excellent for collectors.
Thanks so much for the feedback brother! I’d say..point by point, Comic Capsule wins. If you count who won more points that weighed heavier to me…it was Comic Skins…so I thought, since it was so darn close, its a tie. But I’d really be interested in your thoughts on who won for the points that were more of a priority for you. Let me know
@@Johnthecomicguy honestly with your review... they both seem like very nice ways to display and secure comics. I would probably lean more towards the Comic Capsule as a wall display. The custom labels on the Comic Skins is very nice, but as someone who doesn't care about the grading as much, I think more benefits go to Comic Capsules.

Loved the video... love all your comic content. Was kinda disappointed about the tie tho :)
