Fat’s Comics

I checked out this place (on Adam H’s recommendation, thanks buddy!) today as I was passing through Annerly. I’m really glad I did as there were some great finds in here. I could have spent about $ 100 in just a few minutes if I didn’t mentally give myself «The Talk». Helen, you’re allowed 2 books.
This isn’t the place to buy brand new releases, but there are tons of comics from the silver age (in pretty good condition), among a few newer books from the past few years. There were packs of four or five issues in a series sold together for around $ 20 – 30 which was pretty good. Single issues were anywhere between $ 2.20 to $ 20, depending on the age/​rarity/​condition.
I picked up a Marvel Masterworks hard cover for $ 20. A lot of what is sold seems to be pre-​owned, but had been stored well and protected in bags. I was also pretty delighted to see that they had made a little partitian in one of their Marvel boxes, labelled «Marvel women», containing Spider-​Woman, Phoenix (pretty sure i’ll be back for that one), Ms Marvel, She-​Hulk etc.
If you’re after a gift for someone who likes comic books or graphic novels, this place would be ideal. The wall on your left as you walk in has some good titles. I also spotted some vintage classic car magazines that were pretty cute.
Lastly, an important one for me and i’m sure any other gals who happen to like comic books — this was a no judgement zone. The owner’s son was serving at the counter and was lovely. No eftpos though so grab your cash first. :)
