Black Owned Comic Book Shops
/
Comic book stores have been a HUGELY important part of my life and have helped shape who I am today. I’ve always loved seeking out independent ones especially and seeing what they’re all about. So, here’s a list of black-owned comic book stores (shout-out to Tyler Crook for tweeting this list!) - I wanted to compile them in a place where I could easily reference them for future visiting (or bugging by sending them my stuff!).
If you’re in one of these states, consider calling/supporting/ordering from them - most are open for mail or pick up at the moment! And if you have any to add, please drop their names in the comments below!
