So I have this idea for my room. I want to take one wall... the biggest that has no window or door, and make it into nothing but comic book covers. Famous ones. So it would have like, Wolverine's first appearance, and the Death of Superman cover. Now I just have to figure out how to go about doing it. I think I have high res scans of a lot of these already from just being a nerd while surfing the internet. I'm not sure how to go about printing them, how big and what type of paper that I could stick to my wall. Any suggestions? I'm sure the internet may tell me, too. I'll prolly look it up.

biggrin

UPDATE:

Starting work on this. I figure 5 years of wanting to do this is enough time to wait. Gettinig on the ball.
So far I have covers for:

I have to estimate how many comics I need to plaster my wall. It's (without trim and compensating for an air vent) 7 ft high and 10ft wide. Any more suggestions I could put up?

Reminds me of when I first got a dorm in college, I covered every inch of the wall on 'my side' with magazine cutouts of inspiring and hotness rock stars, bands, tattooed people. They day I finished covering it (over 200 magazines later) was one of the biggest senses of accomplishments I've ever had. Guess I'm kind of a dork. But anyway, I bet it will look beyong awesome when you're done, and you better share pictures biggrin

Also I was going to say you can buy spray on adhesives of all types at a Dick Blick or some kind of art store, but VonGeek and her rubber cement spray beat me to it...
