You do not want to store anything paper in plastic bags! Plastic "degasses", as the polymers that hold the plastic together disintegrate over time.
Your best bet is to put the contents into separate, acid-free envelopes, and to store the boxes in acid-free comic-book boxes, which come in sizes that are more than wide enough to accomodate the boxes.
The Northeast Document Conservation Center (http://www.nedcc.org/welcome/glos.htm#) has a good list of pamphlets, many of which are available online. A good one is Storing Methods and Handling Practices: http://www.nedcc.org/plam3/tleaf41.htm
