XXXMain body and XXXMain picture glue and instant cool truck. I made the lighting bolts connect all the Thor pics AA colbolt blue and Wa Laa! This is my 3rd project ever. Let me know what ya think. I was stunned at the cost of comics since the last time I bought one they were 75 cents LOL. I learned a bit on this project the inner pages work best. The cover is thicker and harder to get into bends. The inner pagers bend nice but will start to tear quickly so get it into position fast. I had some bleeds but over all I am fairly happy with it.

It looks nice, not sure how you glued the pics in there, but the overall effect is nice.
Nifty Idea ya got there:D
Think I'd a been tempted to hit it with Clear..Then press the pics on when it was tacky and Clear again......Don't know if it'd work? ..Just how i'd screw things up..hahaha!
Came out cool however it works..Thanks for showing.

I read somewhere that if you thin elmer's glue 1 to 1 with water it is as good if not better than the XXX stuff. Just a thought.
