The Beguiling
Toronto, Canada
Some comic shops specialize in indies, while others try to offer as many mainstream titles as possible, complete with impressive backstocks. The Beguiling does both. Downstairs, this Palmerston store offers a fantastic selection of indie comics, encompassing everything from obscure, hard-to-find titles to newer, better-known authors, while upstairs, you'll find a vast selection of big-name (think: Super Hero) issues, both new and backstock, as well as manga, original art, posters, buttons, figurines, and other random merchandise. In a city with plenty of solid comic stores, it's among the best.
