I'm hoping people who know more about the scene over in Europe will help out and give their thoughts as I post more of my impressions and pictures :)<BR/><BR/>I think, given the short time I was there, I couldn't find much that wasn't readily available, so i'm sure there are a few better places than Forbidden Planet... I was told that while forbidden planet is NOT the kindof place most people would CHOOSE if they had the luxury, it's true that the bigger the place (regardless of the overall quality), the greater the chance of the rare gems making it on the shelves! <BR/><BR/>Yes, I got a pretty good taste for the German scene from Berlin and Frankfurt, but the french and spanish scenes seem really impressive too! I will post more about some spanish comics I saw while at the book fair in Post 3 of the series :)<BR/>-ryanRyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01175574490647908108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083453.post-1161378661729565912006-10-20T14:11:00.000-07:002006-10-20T14:11:00.000-07:00Hey, great post!

I'm from Dublin by the way, and I can definitely see where you're coming from. Having said that though, it's come on a huge amount in recent years, for example we now have a total of ... 5 comic shops in the country! It's feeble, I know, and 4 of those are in Dublin. And finally, as sad as it is; I have to do 85% of my manga buying in Forbidden Planet, simply because they're the only store that gets new releases from publishers other than Tokyopop. Series like Love Hina, Sgt. Frog, RuroKen, Dragonball, Fushigi Yugi, yadda yadda, are graudally seeping into mainstream booksops though, which is always encouraging. Uhm, sorry the rambling (and un-proofread) rant. Looking forward to the next installment. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
