An absolutely fantastic comic shop, fulfilling all your geeky needs. A brilliant collection of…read moreserial style comics and collected graphic novels, staff members who are helpfull and pretty much always know what on earth you're on about. With everything from your Marvels and DCs to your Indie faves and web comic releases they have it all. Most importantly of all there is an excellent selection of Neil Gaiman stuff and quite regularly art based things by Dave McKean. A must visit for any self respecting fan of comics and geek goods. (I also recommend joining their mailing list for monthly updates on new releases, which features reviews of all the best titles coming out or being re-released/re-packaged.)

After previously coming into the shop the day before with my autistic son to buy two books we went…read moreback to get another book in the series. We went in and I had two drinks in a cup holder. I wasn't drinking them and was standing at the door so my son could buy his book. To my horror I was ordered out as no drinks allowed. I'm not stupid, I appreciate that no drinks should be allowed near the books (which is why I stood at the door). The fact was, the man was rude and extremely patronising to say the least! I informed him I hadn't seen a sign on the door saying no food or drink to which he responded "there's no sign saying don't put your hands in an electrical socket". OMG so so rude!!! My son was extremely confused and upset. Needless to say I shall not be going in the shop again. Common manners and curtesy goes a long way!!!!!!

I actually don't like this Forbidden Planet store as much as the Derby one and this is due to the…read moresize of this one in comparison to the size of the Derby one. This shop is very small, cramped and does not have as much stock as the Derby forbidden planet. It is still a great store for all your comic, game, sci-fi and action figure needs. They seem to have a good selection and the prices are the same as the other forbidden planet (slightly expensive). This forbidden planet also seems quite dark as well and does not have as many staff as the Derby store. A great thing about this forbidden planet is that they do have some great events on, which i am told are very popular. They include signings, meetups and contests. The Derby forbidden planet does not get these kind of things which is a shame.

Just approach anyone in Nottingham and ask them about record shops. They're bound to name Rob. He's…read moreso well known and respected in the city that he had his own interview in the free local magazine LeftLion. Entering this place is an experience. You've probably never seen so many records in your life. The place is like a mine. The cold, the mess, Radio 1 on the go.. you will never forget what you see. This place can be your heaven or hell. Some record diggers will shake in fear at the thought of digging in this place and some will accept the challenge willingly. Bring a cup of tea in a flask, a portable turntable and try and get through every record in this shop. You'd be there for years!
