    Lightbulb Marvel covers wallpaper suggestions?

    My girlfriend finally agreed to my plan on printing a custom wallpaper of Marvel comic book covers for an entire section of wall.

    you guys got any suggestions on which covers I should use? I need about 120 covers to finish out the whole wall.

    My girlfriend is young and said she'd prefer something in the last 12 years or so, so I reckon anything from House of M and onwards would be okay with her.

    Thanks a bunch in advance for the suggestions! It would be nice if you can give me a Title and issue number

    Coolness. Will you post pictures of the finished wall?

    Limiting it to recent covers rules out some great classics that are often referenced later, but if you're not into classic comic book covers, that's understandable. But what ARE you into? Characters, artists, styles, etc?

    For example, I LOVE these unusual covers for X-Men Legacy. But they aren't to everyone's taste.

    And some folks prefer Scottie Young's delightful style.



    Whereas, I'm a Namor and Jae Lee fan, so this was pure awesome for me.

    will definitely post the final product here!

    those are some awesome stuff! definitely gonna add a those! I especially like the Legion one.

    I would want some classics in there especially X-Men and Spidey rbut it's my girlfriends' call, and sadly she's not really into the pre-photoshop generation of comics.
    she's a bully and I have to do what she says haha.

    Heh ... yes, well, domestic peace comes at a price.

    If you like that one, then do a search on Scottie Young Marvel Now ... he's doing a bunch for the new relaunch.

    Will look forward to seeing the final product!

    Well maybe you could tell us both of your favourite heroes?

    I'm down with pretty much anything Marvel, i'm more concerned with artwork and the design than the significance of the story or the characters. my gf's pretty picky and doesn't like the artwork of classic covers.

    That's the combined cover of Thor: God of Thunder issues 1 and 2 (issue 1 is the right half, issue 2 is the left half).
