Unlike a lot of other Comic shops I've experienced you must go to this one with knowledge and be…read moreready on the defensive side. Entering it seems a rather normal set up, with the new comics lining the walls near the back, a set of walls with an array of well shown off product's most can enjoy. However if you are going to look for comics past brand new releases be prepared to search for a while. When visiting (For note, I've gone in roughly ten times in the last year or so) the rows of comics have overtime became rather mixed and well thumbed. Not only do many now live elsewhere such as that pesky Starwars taking a trip into Gotham territory they often don't have any rhythm to numbering either. Secondly with the many jostling about overtime I've seen many issues being damaged past simple corner damage. Bent pages, torn corners and heavy denting upon the front which need to be checked if you are aiming to collect past a one time read. Lastly the owner, who naturally is fine, hard to get a word or two out of him but not very welcoming to friends who have gone in inexperienced. When it comes to comics there's often a similar mindset which comes to owners, they can help those with experience find those specific issues or exclusives around, and to those newbies they suggest some great choices from their own experience. In most I've been to I've at some point found my friends being drawn by the owner giving helpful pointers on great graphic novels to start on. Here however most have been scared off by the bluntness of the owner, not offering any type of help to potential future customers but instead scoffing them off as if not worth the time of place. P.S. Don't tell him you are interested in something, he will try to sell you the kitchen sink. I said I was interested in Harley Quinn, he tried selling me a 1/25 Variant, I told him I already had the issue and was not interested, he then tries bartering, offering the low price of above twenty pound. After refusing further and stating once more, I practically got the cold eye as he let me buy what I was originally there for.

What was once a great little store has been taken over and ruined. This shop used to sell comics…read moreand an array of merchandise, all of which was well organised and tidy. Now, the owners seem to put selling records above comics. I went in not a week ago, and though the store seems to be doing well (it was very busy), the comics were terribly organised. There were random comics laying on top of the boxes which made it difficult to flick through the selections, and the selection of comic books and comic book-related merchandise is much smaller to accommodate (what I've heard are very poor quality) records.
