• Are you the wife of a comic book geek tired of giving him comic books he already has for Christmas?
• Are you tired of seeing the comic book geek in your life leave his money and credit cards all over the kitchen counter?
• Are you looking for a way to recycle the comic book collection of your comic book geek?

If you answered all of those questions (or none) you may want to get your loved one a comic book wallet made by The Comic Book Bin’s very own Andy Doan. Comics wallets are made from actual comic books whose pages Doan ripped apart, folded and assembled to create a wallet big enough to put money, credit cards and pictures of loved ones (including mistresses). Doan makes each wallet individually and maximizes the exposure of each panel so that whether looking from outside or inside, your wallet always features some cool artwork from your favourite comic book!



Known comic book stars with comics wallets made by Doan include Geoff Johns and Darwin Cooke!

But wait, there’s more. As well as stocking up on wallets constantly, Doan also takes special orders. Have an extra copy of Secret Invasion #1 that you’d like to transform into a wallet? Doan can transform it for you! You don’t want to destroy your only copy of Secret Invasion #1? Doan can hunt the back issue for you for a minimal charge, including the cost of the comic book.



Seriously, my good friend Andy has been making these wallets for a year now. He’s given me one which I like a lot. They’re quite sturdy and I was surprised to find a slot for my credit cards. The good thing is that each wallet is unique and can be made from any comic book. They’re also quite affordable and possibly under priced considering the amount of time he spends on each.
