Thanks John!
Check out my retro review of Darkhold. More to come as I journey into some of the books here on the shelves!
For hundreds of years, scholars and heroes alike have searched for the complete text of the Darkhold - AKA the Book of the Damned, written by the elder god Cthon. Now one of the greatest socerers in the Multiverse has found it... Lucy Braithwaite…

Quite a nice relaxed Sunday (not making a habit of Sundays though).Sold comics, art prints, Pokemon cards and some dinosaurs to a tiny girl who had left hers at home. Got to have some dinosaurs on yer! I threw in a couple of weird prehistoric trees.

OPEN this Sunday as well as Saturday this weekend. We feel it's probably owed since we're closing to go on holiday the following weekend.

It's just a small tribute to Terence Stamp.

How to describe this corner...?
UK comics, annuals, vintage books, small press, zines, die-cast vehicles and things 'we don't know what they are really but have a look'?
