I have the resources to start a small business and love comicbooks.
BUT I don't know if this is a viable business or not.
If there are any store owners willing to give any advise I'd love to hear it.

I am currently relocating to the Phoenix AZ area....

Gasp! We call that profession "the widowmaker"! Or we would, if any of the proprieters were married!

Here is a thread (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=106772&highlight=comic+store) that deals with same question and CBR's resident store owners give their advice.

Ok, heres what you do; move to Glen Dale, WV, and start a comic shop. I don't have one:eek: !! I have this little newstand, but it doesn't rly carry and miniseries or one shots tht I would like to read. Just an idea.

I considered briefly, but I knew that I wanted to do it because I love comics and not because I have any desire (or most likely ability) to run a shop
