For this episode Mike finds himself in the beautiful city of Madison, WI and Westfield Comics, which happens to be where he had a subscription service back in the 80s! Tucked into a nice shopping plaza, Westfield Comics West is the physical retail version of the business, and fortunately, the manager Josh was more than happy to be interviewed. While the mail order side of the business is as robust as ever, no corners were cut in the shopping experience and customer service at the physical shop. This shop is as bright and airy as you’ll find, with a huge stock of comics, graphic novels, toys and apparel. From the website: Westfield Comics has been selling comic books through the mail since 1979 which, as a frame of reference, was the same year that Sony debuted the technologically astounding Walkman. They originally sold golden-age comic books but over time, began to have so many requests for new comics that their founder, Sherill Anthony, began selling current issues through the mail. This is a great shop to visit, folks, so be sure to check it out when you’re in the Madison, WI area! Then, Mike is joined by fellow podcaster, Ed Moore. Ed is one of the most knowledgeable comics fans you will ever meet, and he shows it with this review of Usagi Yojimbo Volumes 1 and 2 from Fantagraphics! Find and follow Westfield Comics on Facebook and be sure to stop in to visit this marvelous shop next time you’re in the Madison WI area. You won’t be disappointed! You can contact them (608) 833-4444 and find them at 7475 Mineral Point Rd #22, Madison, WI 53717. Many thanks to Ed for joining me for the great discussion and to Josh for his super recommendation of Usagi Yojimbo!
