Where I can buy Usagi in Chicago?

Post by kony000 »

Hello everybody :)
I have friend in Chicago and I want to ask her for buying a new vol. of Usagi (Book 22: Tomoe's Story). I want to ask you for help. In which shops she can get it? Maybe there are some popular shop's nets? I don't want make her any problems and don't know nothing about shops in U.S. so please help me :D

Best wishes to you all!

Any shop of the future. <Insert Weird Sci-Fi Music> :P
Book 22 I believe does not come out until early July and the Hard cover comes out a couple weeks after that.

At least that what the online resources tell me.

But as for comic stores, I'd just do a search online and you could probably call them to see if they will be getting UY: 22. Odds are, even if they weren't planning on it, they would special order it for ya.

Of course, you can always go and order it online somewhere. I know Amazon and TFAW are pre-selling it. But that hurts your local comic shop in the long end...if that's a concern to you.

I don't want to make her problems with finding shop. Maybe there is some shops which everybody knows and there you can buy new books (something like mcdonald - sorry :P). Maybe they are selling Usagi in every big bookstore :?:
I would like to buy it in "traditional" way, not on line. Please help me because I will have to wait until they realise it in Poland ;)

Sorry for my stupid questions :D

It has been thirteen years since I drove into Chicago, and I have long since forgotten the names of the few comic shops I managed to find and visit back when I was going there on a regular basis, so I cannot recommend any specific store.

Here is a link which might be of help:
http://the-master-list.com/USA/Illinois/index.shtml

Graham Cracker Comics seems to be a fairly large regional chain in the Chicago area.

Look through the list and see what is listed in the area your friend lives in. If the list does not have a direct link for the store, do a google search for the store name to see if it is still in business.

Also, if you just want to make arrangements to have a copy of Book 22 sent to you when it comes out here, I could always mail one to you myself.
