First in a series of reviews of comic book shops in Las Vegas.
Things that were good: I appreciate the big Namco Collection coin-op in the doorway. My friend and I were distracted by it and played a round of Bubble Bobble before moving on to the rest of the shop.
The shop is well lit and organized -- I guess? I mean, things are on nice shelving units, but I found the organization scheme to be a little confusing and they have a lot of graphic novels and back issues. Helpful would be if the owners decided to put labels on the racks for where the DC books start and end, which rack is back issues, etc. I am not noting this as bad since an afternoon with a printer and a laminator could fix this problem immediately.
Things that were bad:
They have a lot of gaming stuff here. I guess the two interests collide in a lot of people -- I game too, but mixing the two is usually not my bag.
But the major points off go to the shop guys hanging out in the back who having a discussion about 'those fags' Colossus and Northstar. Homophobia is so last century.
