    It's very easy to get to from Homewood, too. Just take I-94 to 111th Street and head West.

    how accessible is that by the L? Not very, I'm thinking . . .

    Not at all. It's suburban. Worth the car ride, though. If you're L dependent, you might as well stick with Chicago Comics (Belmont stop on the Red line).

    It's a fine store if you want counterculture stuff, but not if someone wants mainstream comics, or to see anyone who smiles.

    And if you're into porn, that's a swell place too.

    Whenever I'm in the city I always stop by Graham Crackers on Madison, right off of Michigan. Very Nice store.
