If you were to frame 4 comic book covers on your wall, which ones would you pick to display?

All Star Comics #4, Adventure Comics #65, Flash Comics #17, and probably Action Comics #1

Good question, I would have to decide if I would like comics I love or covers I love. Two different things.
Yeah, for me its more characters I love. So I'm going very traditional
Action Comics #1
Detective Comics #27
Amazing Fantasy #15
Captain America Comics #1
Predictable, but:
Transformers #59
Uncanny X-Men #50, #137, #189
So that's Grimlock vs the Decepticons; Lorna Dane; Scott & Jean on the moon; Magma and Rachel vs Selene
I would probably go with a Barry Smith Conan cover. Something by Kirby, Fantastic Four or Thor. Or maybe Sgt Fury #16, one of my favorite Kirby covers. Steranko would be there. And last, maybe a Buscema Silver Surfer, or something by Colan. Of course there is also Ditko, especially Spider-Man #29.
Or I'd just go with the Beatles and Sgt.Pepper.
Would probably go with a theme.
Perhaps, White Backgrounds.

Currently I have: [I]Saga[/I] #1 (Signed by Fiona Staples), [I]Die [/I]#1, [I]Runaways [/I]#1 (5th Series, Alphona variant), and [I]Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 8[/I] #1 framed on my wall. I rotate them out with other comics as I see fit, usually number ones or comics of sentimental/monetary value.
Well let's see, Hero Initiative has sold framed prints of comic book covers as a fund raiser at several cons I have gone to over the last couple years. The selection they offer is fairly broad though not exhaustive to be sure. But I have purchased four of those, so I will go with them...
these are pics of the actual prints...
