Topic: Comic Books - New
TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3660 - Sunday, after the meeting for the San Diego Comic Fest, (as seen in blog #3559), my youngest son and I checked out a brand new LCBS (Local Comic Book Shop) in the San Diego area close to the meetup. That new LCBS was 'Yesteryear Comics', which is owned and operated by Michael Cholak, as pictured in the photo by this blog's logo, above. I'm shown standing outside of the LCBS's storefront to give you an idea of the size of this 930 square foot facility. I was surprised to see a sizeable back issues bin in the middle of the LCBS, and it actually had several nice back issues for sale. Other than being a little 'tight' in packing the bins, the display was a nice one. The LCBS has all the new issues on both walls of the rectangular shaped suite. Plus there are several older (Silver Age / Bronze Age) comics under glass at the register area. There is also a small section at the front of the shop where the TPBs and Graphic Novels are located. I found Michael to be knowledgeable on comics, (he's in his late 30s), and eager to get his new found comic shop on track to service those in the area around his shop. If you live in the area, feel free to check this new, (opened in April of 2012), LCBS out! Here is the link to Yesteryear Comics' web site. Here is the link to the map where the LCBS is located. This is the link to the Facebook Fan Page for Yesteryear Comics. My thanks to Michael Cholak for his time at his new LCBS. Good luck to you on your new endeavors!
