Little Rock, AR (PRWEB) December 16, 2005 -- Your Comics Online announces the launch of a brand new Web site designed for comic book collectors by comic book collectors: YourComicsOnline.com. The site provides information, auctions, news and links of interest to collectors of comic books and comic-related merchandise.

“The idea is to have a community where comic collectors can discuss topics related to our favorite hobby,” Stu Berryhill, co-founder of Your Comics Online and long-time comic collector, said. “We want to be a forum for information on fair grading of comic books and correct shipping procedures that will help protect against damage. Another goal of the site is to help in the reduction of any other ‘negative phenomena’ that tends to cheapen the comics we collect.”

Your Comics Online is a starting point for beginners, as well as, a meeting place for veteran collectors. In addition to the site’s forum, there are articles on collecting for investment or fun, or for both; how to buy and sell online; how to safely ship comics; how to check for restoration; where to buy your supplies; and links to many of the excellent comic-related sites available that will help collectors fill in the gaps in a collection, or just find out how many "Captain Marvels" exist or how many issues of “Solar” comics have been published by Valiant Comics. Your Comics Online has a glossary of comic-related terms and suggestions on grading. As the site continues to grow, more information will be added.

“When Stu approached me about building the site, I was excited to begin the project. I have been a collector for years, and this gave me a chance to utilize my programming and design skills for a comic book collector’s Web site,” Shane Tripcony, co-founder of Your Comics Online and president of Tripcony Consulting, (www.tripconyconsulting.com) a web design and development company out of Little Rock, Ark., said.
