Mekanik Strip is één van de grootste en mischien wel één van de belangrijste stripwinkels en aan…read morestrips gerelateerde kunstgalerij op het Europese continent. Als je onvoorbereid binnenwandelt word je omvergeblazen door de massale hoeveelheid strips, poppen, t-shirts en andere comic gadgets. Noem het en het staat er. Denk er aan en je ziet het. Alles maar ook alles is voorhanden.In bijna twintig jaar tijd is Mekanik strip uitgegroeid van een klein winkeltje, een voorschoot groot tot een pretmagazijn. De Comic Art and Warehouse, oftewel de kunstgalerij op de eerste verdieping, was en is wat mij betreft revolutionair. Gevestigde waarden als Charles Burns en Glen Barr minder maar ook jonge mensjes in de striptekenwedstrijd "What's your excuse?!"' krijgen een platform. Oh ja en voor je binnenstapt, kijk zeker even naar boven!

I'm not reviewing too many shops on this trip because I basically only brought a backpack and I…read moreonly review stores I make purchases from, so you know what that means! Brusel is located right in the heart of the city along with a ton of other shops, but this one....this one hit different. I went into probably five or six different comic book shops in Brussels and this one was my absolute favourite. On the lower level of the shop you have all of the comic trades, the manga, and a bunch of random other things like Smurfs figures and Studio Ghibli stuff along with the cash register to pay. Upstairs is a random shrine to Harry Potter with a ton of his merchandise and even a hanging display of owls, Harry Potter fan or not, it's very very cool. Overall, Brusel is my favourite comic store in the city and the store we each picked up four comics to bring home with us. This store should be on any comic lovers list of places to stop!

This is the comic book shop without the clutter and far more streamlined. Was walking past and had…read moreseen Brusel's a few times prior, their storefront semi-piquing my interest but never enough for me to enter. This time around I walked by and caught a glimpse of a gorgeous framed Blacksad poster/picture and was like holy crap... I think I can finally buy that book. Sure enough they had everything plus an art book. It did cross my mind to just go buy it on Amazon, but it was just so in the moment. Long story short, I splurged a little. This place really will ruin your wallet. I almost ended up buying even more books and a few adorable French zines. Languages for the books vary from French, Flemish to English and a small section in Japanese. Their manga section was also really fun and I love the European publication style to their Manga which is almost 1:1 to Japanese print in size and feel unlike American publications. Almost nabbed a few of those too... They also have an upstairs and downstairs filled with framed artwork which I assume are actual originals, but if not, my mistake. They all looked very nice and well displayed. They require you to leave your bag at the front if you are to look at them and enforce no photo policy of the artwork, since I was semi in a rush, I opted to not look at gorgeous art for hours... sigh. Brusel's also packs lots of other fandom items from Harry Potter, Batman, etc.. the like. Things like wands and themed chest boards. Seriously would have killed my entire wallet here... The damage was only one very expensive and gorgeous graphic novel.

Ahh, a Belgium comic book store. Actually, I discovered this place (and the one next door) as I was…read moreattempting to make my way to a laundromat and made the decision to head back here the next morning before we caught the train to Ghent. Personally, I'm glad I did, but then again since I discovered them there wasn't going to be anything stopping me from coming down here to have a look around. All I can say is that these places literally blow the comic book stores that I am used to completely out of the water namely because the Belgium and French comics seem to be on a completely different level than what you get from America and Japan. However, I am a long time fan of Tintin (and to a lesser extend Asterix), so any comics (or should I say graphic novels) in that style are going to grab my attention.

It is also a store for music and computer-related items picture Bestbuy and Barnes/Noble combine together. While I was still stuck on TinTin and still fascinated by the fact that the Smurfs were also from Belgium, the Belgians had gone on to other types comics. I stopped to look for a classic TinTin's comic book that was a collector's item and was astonished by the racks of comic books on the wall. My bf on the other hand bought the latest edition of The Chefs of Belgium where many of his friends' recipes were featured in the book. FNAC was quite a large store with three floors compared to other stores in the square. I enjoyed shopping there. If you were looking for a comic book definitely stop by the store.
