Comic book shops in Amman

The map for Amman, Amman's comic shops is still blank. Our search covered roughly 40 km around Amman, looking through OpenStreetMap for comic shops, and turned up nothing mapped so far. Blank maps are usually a mapping gap rather than a real gap. This page refreshes daily from the latest map data, so a blank today can be a full guide tomorrow.

Getting your comics fix around Amman

No mapped comic shops doesn't mean no comics. The usual stand-ins: the library's graphic novel section (free, and better stocked than you'd think), bookstore manga and trades shelves, and the nearest city's comic shops — worth a monthly trip with a pull list in mind.

Amman sits about 32° north of the equator, so it gets proper seasons. Winter is peak comics season: dark evenings, the big event storylines running, and the Wednesday ritual at its cosiest.

And mark the first Saturday in May: Free Comic Book Day is the best excuse to visit a new shop, wherever it is.

Comic smarts for Amman

No mapped comic shops yet, but the comics habits work anywhere. Four worth knowing:

• Dig the back issues. The long boxes are the shop's memory. Full runs of older series hide here at a fraction of collected-edition prices.
• Respect the reading copies. The shop's reading copies are for browsing, not bending. Treat them like library books.
• Bag and board your finds. Acid-free bags and backing boards cost pennies and save collections. Shops sell them; buy them there.
• Don't sleep on manga. The manga section has exploded for a reason. If you've never tried it, ask the staff for a starter series.
