What is a Comic Wallet? Let's go to ComicWallet.com for the answer:
"Each Comic Wallet is made from a page of a real comic book that has been fused to a piece of rugged canvas. Wallets are professionally sewn together and comprised of canvas, cotton nylon and velcro. Each wallet has six separate card slots and a clear ID pocket.
