This place is THE BEST. Up front, pick up Cinema Sewer and Sleazy Slice (if you're up for it). In the back zine section, grab Crass Sophisticate. The sales section is amazing too. Photo booth caps it.

Quimby's is the place to find indie magazines/comics. It's a very charming store that will hypnotize you with innumerous cool stuff ????
