The big little comics store hanging out under the stairs at Harrogate's Everyman Cinema. We love everything Comics, Sci-Fi and Fantasy. Likely to re-post about comics we like the look of. Posting mostly by Regie, store owner.

Just published a book.

Think it's good.

People say it is.

But really need to sell more copies.

Please grab one. Cheap!

Hi everyone !

I’m going to have to open a few comms as as good as going back to school is, it’s rough financially

Do be advised that things might take a while on orders due to homework and lectures !

If you wish to support, here are my slots and my ko-Fi in general !

Digital illustration of a young man under green and orange neon lights at night. Blurred neon signs are behind him. He has shoulder-length blonde hair parted on the side, flowing as he walks, multiple face piercings, smokey eye make up, and is casually smoking a cigarette Digital illustration depicting a one-armed french world war one soldier in a field of tall grass. He is ablaze as he smokes a cigarette and holds his rifle lanyard with his hand. In the background are church ruins in foggy weather. The tones are blue and orange. Illustration depicting a terrifyingly skinny woman with long silver hair parted towards the front. The illustration depicts her from behind. She's missing an arm and has a damaged prothestic limb as replacement. She's holding a cutter pointed towards a bright red square in the centre of her spine Digital painting of an abandoned barn and hanger by the train tracks on a stormy, orange day - the hanger has graffiti on it, and the small shack in the back has its door open out of which a red glow eminates

Some of the best comics you will ever read. Seriously. If you're anywhere near Harrogate in North Yorkshire get yourself to the Mercer Art Gallery and check out the exhibition of comic art. If you're not? Buy the books! They're awesome!

Tim has been with us since back in our photocopying zine days. He's a true UK comics great. If he was from somewhere with a better comics infrastructure then he'd be an obscenely rich megastar (maybe).
You can get his work in a handy bundle here!

Let's just say that we were always Aronofsky sceptics.

OK. I'm a big fan of The Song of Ice and Fire. Hated the TV show. I really want to read the end of the saga, and I do feel that there's a contract between writer and reader to finish the story if they can. But that's the key word: "if they can". Sometimes they can't. Leave the old man in peace.

George R.R. Martin has said that if he never completes Game of Thrones sequel Winds of Winter (or the book after that), there's no plan for anyone else to step in. Instead, his Song of Ice and Fire series simply "won't be finished."

We are very sad to hear of the passing of Sal Buscema. He was a true giant of the art - his Spectacular Spider-Man run was underrated at the time, at least in our opinion, but it still looks astonishing today.

There are many awesome artists standing on his shoulders and he will be very much missed.

Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.

If anyone was wondering why we're not on TikTok, this is one of the reasons.

The other is that Regie is 54 years old and doesn't understand it.

INDEPENDENT TERRITORY! Discover the gloriously untrue adventures of Sapphira. Is she sitting alone in her flat, or is she searching for her cat on the Moon? Reading this is the only way to find out... Quirky, fun storytelling & deliciously original art. A very welcome addition to our indie racks!
Regie holds a copy of The Gloriously Untrue Adventures of Sapphira tp the camera. The cover features a beautifully rendered head shot of the character of Sapphira looking out at the viewer. We'd describe her, but we think that she is deliberately looking enigmatic...

INDEPENDENT TERRITORY: TOTAL RECALL OF THE HEART
In an all too plausible dystopian near future Skunk is drawn into a grimy romantic mystery that will grip you harder than a super-glued vice. Heart & romantic rebellion abound! Don't miss this devastating debut from two astonishing creatives.
Regie holds a copy of Total Recall of the Heart to the camera. The cover has a black background featuring a tatooed shirtless young man, seen from the waist up in the foreground. He holds a lit cigarette in his right hand. Behind him is the blue apparition of a seated woman, also smoking. Her left arm is draped around his shoulder.
