“Longboxes” are where comic book fans store their comics, and “Graveyards” are places of myth, memory, and monsters!

My name is Paul O’Connor and Longbox Graveyard is my blog about comic books. Originally conceived as a means of keeping myself on track while I organized an out-of-control comic book collection, the blog has taken on a life of its own, and is still going strong into its fourth year.

The emphasis is on Bronze Age (1970-1985) comic book nostalgia and reviews, with an occasional look at more modern work. You can best understand the ethos of this blog by reading the first post; posts alternate between reviews of books “rescued” from “The Accumulation” of the Longbox Graveyard for preservation in my curated collection, and more general posts about collecting and other subjects.

Sorry, but I do not generally accept contemporary books for review.
