Got a fun note from the vivacious Christie St. Martin (who you may know from her Funny Pages 2.0 blog) about the street-level celebration of the release of ‘Watchmen’ up in Toronto.

Check out these alley paintings....

The paintings can be seen be seen by vistors to Queen Street West, the popular shopping district, on the wall outside The Silver Snail, the popular comics shop. The three photos above are by Christie’s pal Jon Robertson. (He has a larger gallery of images on Facebook.)

And Christie shot the photos below which show an elaborate (and quite striking!) window display at the Snail.

And some very cool shots below...
