Comic book shops in Coleraine

Zero mapped comic shops in Coleraine, Northern Ireland — for now. We checked OpenStreetMap within about 25 km of Coleraine for comic shops.

Getting your comics fix around Coleraine

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.

Coleraine sits about 55° 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 Coleraine

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

• Learn what a key issue is. First appearances and landmark issues — the keys — hold value. The staff can point out which back issues matter.
• Check the toys and statues. The collectibles wall funds the comics side. Fun to browse, dangerous for the wallet.
• Start a pull list. The shop sets aside your series each week. You never miss an issue, and the shop gets a reliable customer. Everyone wins.
• Don't chase variants blindly. Variant covers are fun but most don't appreciate. Buy the art you like, not the ratio you don't understand.
