PSA: My new window spot faded my comic covers.

I stacked my comics near a big window. After a few weeks, the colors were gone. Move them away from sunlight.

Feel your pain, sunlight ruins comic covers fast.

Yeah, it's the worst. Sunlight just eats through everything. @eva_morgan11, what do you even do with your comics to keep them safe? I've got a short box on a shelf that gets indirect light, and I'm already paranoid. Are those special UV bags worth the money, or is it just better to find a dark closet and accept you can't display them at all? It feels like you have to choose between enjoying your collection and watching it fade.

About special UV bags, I read they slow fading but nothing beats a dark closet for real protection.
