Looks a lot like the Ikea MOSSLANDA shelving.

Yes, that’s it.  Pretty straightforward to put up too.

[grendelbo]

I'm allowed very little space in my house to decorate. I have an original Grateful Dead concert poster in my living room and then one wall of my bedroom is mine to do with as I please.

There's a bookshelf along that wall and I'll display up to 12 comics at a time, rotating them out every 2-4 days.

It's enough. I get go to look at and enjoy them daily. 

Here's a sampling of what I put up. Often it's random. Sometimes there's a theme like Bronze Keys, Female Heroes, Horror Covers, Certified Issues, etc.

That's an amazing collection of books but I'm going to vote for that row of Groo keys as the sleeper choice for best display of the bunch!!

Finally got my collection mostly displayed at the new house in a smaller room. 
 

I think you need a BIGGER room 
Very sweet collection

Thanks for appreciating my simple display. Here's a few more examples. A lot of the same books get back up on display week after week. Occasionally I'll put a few up on my chest of drawers but one of the cats likes to knock them down there.

Dollar store adjustable easles, by the way.

I like taking these pics then browsing through the various combinations. It's another way I "use my collection" on a daily basis.

That's Toby. Probably the best cat I've ever had. He's long and lean, quite the hunter, the most "cat" cat I've ever seen. Somewhat like an African Wildcat. Also an in-your-face lover (but not to the rest of my family). Also sometimes an a-hole. He'll jump up on my displays. He cracked my HOS 92 slab nicely, hence it again being raw.

I'll swap him for a mid-grade Crime Patrol 15.

Thanks for the images. I remembered that I had that Conan the Barbarian movie magazine when I was young. Need to pick up another copy and go over those issues.

Cats are odd. Some won't even let you read a comic. But then you get Kate Beckinsale's cat that puts up with a crazy amount of stuff.

Yeah I'm totally here for the Groo love, he's what got me into comics as a kid and I still love them.  Also the fact that you're swapping them out so often means even with limited space you're probably enjoying your comic collection more than 99% of us. Kudos grendelbo, from one bo to another.

My daughter as well. We recognized Sergio at a cafe in Ojai early one summer, then mentioned it to him at SDCC where he proceeded to draw a great sketch for her.

I hope there's a Samurai Santa #1 on display here in December.
