That is a sweet setup, but do you have any reservations about keeping those comics in direct sunlight? My slabs are like Gremlins: no water, no light and I never feed them after midnight!

I have posted to this topic before, but just redid my comic room, so thought I would share.  And, I finally got one of my grails (poster-wise), the 1975 Marvel Comicon!  Not mint, but no tears or pinholes, not too bad condition.

Lately it seems I am getting more excited acquiring new posters/art, then I am acquiring comic books, lol!

Finally moved to a home where I could have a comic room. It is a work in progress for me, as I am also a new Dad.

Here is what I started with, the home is very old. I believe the "built-in" cabinets were gun racks at one time.

Apologies for the terrible pics:

Been a while since I took those.....

Here is the first display cabinet. I just picked the first couple slabs I had to space shelves and see if I liked the lights....

Thanks NoMan! It is a work in progress. I cleaned things up over the weekend. Couple updated shots. The room will serve as an office for me, but I'm aiming for a sort of lounge feel.

to do:

1. Window coverings

2. Custom storage

3. Picture ledges

4. Some kind of framed art

5. Cabinet bar

6. Hang TV

The storage is really the thing slowing me down right now. I'm not all that handy, and it has been difficult to get a quote for a custom cabinet.
