Are there any comic shops left now that still have old skool atmos?

I'm not sure if its the atmos you are after but Sheffield Space Centre feels like it can hardly have changed in the 45 years its been open. Its certainly very old skool.

Awesome, Colin.

I'd love to pay a visit and feel incredibly uncomfortable!

Gosh London & Mega City Comics in Camden still have that old school vibe

[karlos]

I revisited my old comic shop last week, which is now a bohemian pub/bar/thing (and very nice it is, too).

Stepping in was very odd - the place seemed so much smaller than I remembered.

The memories came flooding back quickly, but you can't go home again, can you?

Logged in just to back Colin up here.
The Sheffield Space Centre (which used to advertise in the old Progs!) hasn't changed a bit.
It's small, cramped, and stacked to the gills with comics, GNs, Gundam warrior kits (and more I assume), soundtracks, sci-fi and fantasy books, trading cards, etc...

Best thing?
No f*cking Funko Pops

Odyssey Seven, in the University Precinct Centre, Oxford Road, Manchester. Dad used to drive me in all the way from Bolton every month or so, bless him. They also had one in the old Corn Exchange.
