Anthony’s comicbook art
It’s no secret I think that next to photography (and Annewiek) I absolutely love comic books. Mostly Batman and the short horror and monster stories.
The USA is of course the home of the comic books and whenever we visit we always visit several stores and fleamarkets hunting for new (old) issues and perhaps some treasures. Now I have to be clear, I actually never really do shop reviews, but for this shop I make an exception.
Last year they were the last shop we visited, and we were overwhelmed. This is NOT a comicbook store like you know, this can best be described as that moment in Raiders of the lost Ark when they open up the doors to that HUGE warehouse where all the treasures were stored….. well welcome to Anthony’s comicbook art.
This is a store you really cannot afford to miss, I could literally spend a month there and probably not have seen it all, it’s insane. But the coolest thing was that they still knew me. And trust me when I buy I don’t really leave an impression, I’m mostly into the 1-5 US books and because we have to fly I don’t buy boxes of them. But still the moment we got out of the car we got a very warm welcome and they immediately know that I was that photographer from the Netherlands.
Also this time we were not disappointed and I got some cool older books.
And of course I couldn’t resist to take some shots inside the warehouse.
Again, if you are in the New Jersey/New York area make sure to check these guys out, their collection is really insane, prices are good and the service is above any standard, that’s actually the reason I wrote this small review, just to thank them.
