Comic book pricing was already a little screwed before BrExit started, prices where going up for the imprints, and larger chains were absorbing those costs, forcing smaller ones to do the same. The drop in the pound will have killed a number of those, and the larger stores will now grab this as the reason to increase their prices, and claw back that increase that they absorbed previously.
It's only going to get harder for good independents sadly.

Just got a tweet from my local comic book shop - it's closing down due to "recent changes in the economic climate." They focused on North American publications, so I guess that makes sense.
Where will I get my Archie and Howard the Ducks from?!?
Seriously though, fucking BS. They have a shop in Richmond, so I hope no one has lost any work because of this.
