clickable text I recommend my method. Do not give a darn. 10 years, have not noticed any discernible fading, but I avoid fluorescent and direct natural, could have faded a little, or maybe not at all I would be scared of led, I know fluorescents fade them. Led kinda reminds me of that light, no history to test |

One thing that should be stated here .the interaction of comics and light can be affected based on light sources ..exposure amounts and such but at the end of the day the effect is Like any other physical interaction. It is happening...it is damaging the comic and it is highly accumulative. You might be unable to.visually detect damage.occurring to the paper but physics doesn't just stop for your conveinance. Often years after removing the comic from the wall it will continue fading ...yellowing and turning brittle. Display if you choose..they are your comics..but be realistic what the effects are |
