What counts as a comic shop in Douala

A shop built around comics: new issues, back issues, trades, usually with the games and collectibles alongside. What doesn't count: the graphic-novel shelf at the bookstore, and online-only sellers. The bar is a real shop where Wednesday means new comics.

Douala sits near the equator. There's no real off-season for comics here — new issues land every Wednesday year-round, and the ritual doesn't care about weather.

Comic smarts for Douala

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

• Check the events board. Signings, launches, creator visits — the board by the counter is the shop's social calendar.
• Ask about subscriber discounts. Many shops discount pull-list customers. Ten percent off adds up fast when you buy weekly.
• Visit on Free Comic Book Day. First Saturday in May. Free comics, creators, costumes — the best day to discover a new shop.
• Check the toys and statues. The collectibles wall funds the comics side. Fun to browse, dangerous for the wallet.
