As far as I know: One black and white print for each of the 18 unity covers, and two color prints, each with the combined image from the eight covers by Miller and Simonson resp.

Are the covers supposed to go together like that? I guess I never noticed it before...I think that i will have to go dig out my unity books and put them together..

Yep, they form a nice larger picture, especially the first half of Unity with the black background and the hands.

are those scans of the actual comics or are they something else....they do not look like comic books to me...that is cool though...I did not remember that...Maybe that would make a cool frame thingy that I could hang on the wall...some cool art for the wall for like not a lot of money...I would think that all of those issues could be had for about 20 dollars or so...I would think that the frames or just one frame would cost 5-6 times the cost of the comics....

The scans are from a Valiant comic... which one escapes me at the moment...
Maybe Unity #1...

Basically the comic says, "Hey, you can line up the covers like this..."
then it shows those two layouts. I scanned the graphics instead of trying
to line up the books. :wink:
