Gambit, with Nightcrawler a close second. Wolverine was cooler when he was Weapon X. | ||

i remember the days when you could actually get a decent range of readables in normal newsagents
ken douch in knockholt for all manner of ipc/dct thompson; the newsagent just outside the walnuts in orpington for marked down dc thompson/ipc (they always forgot to sort out their returns  ); derek's in green street green for marvel & dc, plus adult stuff; the post office in the crescent, green street green, for horror, fantasy and geek mags, as well as a decent range of the mature comics & dc/marvel stuff...
them's were the days

and then up to that there london every couple of months for the forbidden planet/comic showcase/gosh axis
|

Comic showcase -- was that around Covent Garden way? Used to get Judge Dredd shit from there.
MC1 in Camden deserves a heads-up too. |

i remember when i was a kid and there were loads of comics that folded after about 20 issues as well trying out new stuff/breaking new artists etc as well, some even made it to the little village i grew up in | ||
| J77 |
I once went to a comic thing at the watershed -- loads of weird old man trying to hand off their horror comics. | ||
| bristle-krs |
aye, the far end of neal street east, opposite daniel poole
i used to go to pilot/the tintin shop, but the woman who ran it was/is well fucking snotty. |
||
| hiccup |
Heh, I used to spend happy days bouncing around that very axis
Forbidden Planet and Gosh are still where they always were. Think Comic showcase has moved though. |
||
| J77 |
Yeah -- I did the tintin shop -- and the kite shop -- used to get massive kites from there -- then slam city skates when it opened.
Everything I needed in one location
|

||
| bristle-krs |
i think before the new oxford st shop opened, fp had a couple of smaller stores in london. st giles high street or something rings a bell? i remember a nemesis the warlock photo story set in it i also remember purity browne being very erm convincing 
|

| hiccup |
I wonder what happened to all my comics? Hmmmm. | ||
| hiccup |
I used to get Hate! from Gosh. Fucking hell, wish I knew where they were now. My favourite comic ever. | ||
| bristle-krs |
gosh was great for small press stuff & zines, and it was conveniently close to the bloomsbury bookshops like unsworth rice & coe, and skoob on sicilian avenue wasn't too far either, and then there was the british museum too
