Super Heroes Window

The next time you are in Bedford Street, come and take a look at our new window display. We are currently highlighting the marvelous collection of Graphic Art books, Marvel Comics and Super Hero magazines we have to offer. Besides those in the window, there are more facing into the shop from the window display and we also have a large selection of collectable Graphic Art Magazines at the back of the shop above our regular Science Fiction section.

We hope to have something for all Graphic Art collectors and if you cannot see what you are looking for, please ask as we do have other Graphic Art stock available.
