The two street-corner indie shoppes are still going strong after several decades and changes of ownership.
It's located in a pretty decent area, and they do get good business from both the comic readers and table-top gamers. They also cover textbooks for the local colleges, so that's super-profitable, right there. I can't really comment on the selection of FCBD material, as I've never been able to go to the shop on Saturdays. Otherwise, the normal selection ranges from the big two to the smaller publishers, like Blue Water.
