While in Italy I figured I needed to pick up some of my favorite Italian comics in Italian! Having…read morejust been totally burned in a different bookshop by mistakenly buying a copy of Corto Maltese in French (omg. Like, in my defense I'm IN Italy, IN an Italian book shop, BUYING an Italian comic-I didn't even think to look at the language!!!! Uggghhh. I'm an idiot, but also I feel like maybe a little not my fault here??? C'mon) I stopped by Borsa del Fumetto to rectify my situation as it was conveniently located right by my hotel.
Guys working there were nice and answered my broken Italian with skillful English. They helped me find the Corto Maltese I was looking for and then I got lost in their multiple shelves of Dylan Dog. Their prices were super reasonable and their collection seemed pretty vast for the relatively smaller space-new and used books. Nice little comic shop that reminded me of the good ol days. I'd definitely come back if I'm ever back in Milan.
