Here is a picture of part of my collection. At the time I took this, there were 40 boxes, but I'm up to 44 now.

There are 6629 individual comics in there as of today (the statistics page shows 6780 because there are some duplicates), and that number increases by a dozen or so each week when new comics come out on Wednesdays. I've read almost all of them, and the ones I have not read are in the long boxes at the lower-right. They will get moved to the small boxes after they've been read. I am strict with myself about not putting anything into what I call the "main collection" until it has been read.
