I did something similar during college in my dorm room. Used to bring different girls back to the room; many of which seemed to feel it was somewhat geeky. However, one girl didn't and I married her. We are still together 18 years later.

Yep, that's a keeper! Similar situation with my wife, just revolving around football.

Wall is awesome man, looks real sharp! :thumb:

Pretty much same thing for me. A few years ago, instead of Valiant, I covered my wall with Buffy comics. My roommate(s) had a few girls over that seemed to think that was just the most loser-ish thing to do, but I always knew there'd be someone who would just think my hobbies were neat, regardless of how weird they are. A year later and we're still together. :D

Well it's not perfect. If i wasn't so lazy I'd probably sit all of the comics on thin wooden shelves, instead of sticking them directly to the wall, but it still looks pretty rad. I also wanted to frame the poster (I get a new one free from my LCS every few months) and events at the bottom, but my significant other that I mentioned earlier said that it would look stupid unless I spent some actual money on frames, so I sort of gave up on that. I kept my signed Harbinger Wars 1 framed though. :)

It really is a good thing for a "prospective mate" to understand who you are. The fake don't-do-anything-too-weird people are just asking for trouble... later.

Nice set up, I done that once with Marvels baby variants, (inside my walk-in closet tho) I'm thinking about doing it with my Valiant Gold books..

Wall looks great, Ferg! Don't ever be shy about being who you want to be publicly.

Well said. I find that people who are looked upon as "weird" are far more interesting, inspiring & cool people to know than the average person that is too scared to do anything but run with the lemming/sheeple crowd. You definitely want to be with someone who likes you for you, weird or otherwise :)

Looks good. I have a few of the older chromium covers displayed so I can see them as I get ready for work in the morning. Puts me in a good mood for the day.
