NoMan Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 In discussing local Los Angeles comic shops we seem to ALL agree that House of Secrets in Burbank sucks giant musty hemorrhoid-ic King Kong testicles and Earth 2 in Sherman Oaks is nice and the owner Carr is fair, but what of BlastOff Comics on Lankershim Blvd in North Hollywood? Experienced opinions wanted. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoMan Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) Just now, Get Marwood & I said: Where is Los Angels? Is it in Belgium? Please see singer Stan Ridgway's band Drywall for clues. Specifically the album Work The Dumb Oracle. Also Ridgway's film The Drywall Incident is helpful.

The music sounded like a monkey jumping up and down on a bontempi. Quite liked it. Who needs two e's anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoMan Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) Stan Ridgway is God. It's too bad he's thought of as a one-hit-wonder with Wall Of Voodoo's Mexican Radio. His solo albums are sooo good. His songs are straight out of an EC comic. Check out The BIg Heat.

oakman29 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Personally I would venture away from L.A. and go to Ontario to see a board members store Bunky Brothers, and say hi to Bunky Brian. You're welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Anybody hit Geoffrey's Comics? They used to have a pretty good selection of GA and SA stuff. He passed away a while ago. I heard his family was keeping it open. Haven't been there in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 4:09am here so I may be a little confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
