I own Jackson’s only comic book store, and I’m curious about something.
I was thinking about something since i’ve got back from San Diego Comic Con...
As far as I know, I'm the only comic book store owner in Jackson, Mississippi.
It's a weird responsibility because for a lot of people, we're their first—and sometimes only—experience with a comic shop.
The thing that surprises me most is how often I hear, "I had no idea Jackson even had a comic book store."
So I'm curious...
If you live in Jackson:
- Have you ever been to a comic book store?
- If not, what's kept you from checking one out?
- When you hear "comic book store," what comes to mind?
For me, comics have always been bigger than superheroes. They're horror, crime, romance, memoirs, fantasy, manga, independent books, and incredible art. I love helping people find a book they never knew they were looking for.
I'd really love to hear from Jackson locals. Whether you've been reading comics your whole life or have never stepped into a comic shop, I'm interested in your perspective.
