Small Press/Alternative Comic Shops
When most people picture a comic shop they probably think of something dealing in superheroes and Funko Pops. But there are also shops out there that specialize in the strange and eclectic, and many them also pay wholesale prices to self-published cartoonists to carry their work. So if you’re looking for a place to find or sell alternative comics, look no further than the shops on this list.
