Forbidden Planet in Denmark Street for me was just the best. It wasn't the same when it moved to New Bond Street, but that was miles ahead of what it is now on Shaftesbury Av. It's hardly even a comic shop now. It's spiritual successor, Orbit has gone now, leaving a huge gap. Only Gosh remains in London. But gone are they days when there were boxes and boxes of back Progs. Guess I should have bought them when I had the chance.
And yes I also visited Forever People when at Uni in Bristol. It was my go to every Friday to get my Prog. Which kinda brings up a point that, the day the Prog comes out has moved around over the years. So much for "in orbit every Monday". It's been Monday, then Friday, then Wednesday. Unless you are a subscriber, when it's Saturday, unless Postie doesn't have it.
