Comics In Key West?

By | Friday, September 09, 2011 2 comments
This October, I'll be heading down to Key West for a wedding and dragging it out into just a chillaxing vacation. With Fantasy Fest going on and a rent-a-jet-pack place right there -- not to mention the folks that I'll be down there with -- I don't have any concerns about filling out that week. (Although I must say that I was disappointed to learn that their pirate museum has just far up the coast to St. Augustine.) BUT, I'm a comic book type of guy and I'd be interested in hitting any comic-related items of interest as well. The problem is: I can't find any.

As far as I can tell, there are no comic shops there. Period. I found a couple of folks who have done local-ish comics in the past, but don't seem to still do anything with it. I've read that Dean Mullaney and Susie MacNelly live down there, but those both seem to be more temporary or vacation homes or something.

So I'd like to throw the question out to whoever might be reading this: do you know of any comic book/strip personalities, shindigs or venues that I should make a point of checking out while I'm down there?

In Key West? No. It's too humid for comics I think, no joke. Last time I was there, there was a used bookstore that had back issues, but that was about it.

Hi there I know this ad is very dated at this point but we live in Key west and have 1000s of comics collected since childhood many number 1s in excellent condition. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested still thanks David kw305leslie@gmail.com
