Amalgam Comics & Coffeehouse

"In 2015, Ariell Johnson opened the first Black, female-owned comic book store on the East Coast. Come to Amalgam for the broad and inclusive selection—ranging from the big players (Marvel and DC Comics, from Captain America to X-Men) to indie publishers, like the Kickstarter-backed Tuskegee Heirs. But also come to soak up the warm and inclusive vibes in this haven for geek culture. Pick up a copy of Black Panther World of Wakanda #1-6, by Ta-Nehisi Coates, Roxane Gay, and Yona Harvey; the novel Lovecraft Country; or David Crownson’s Kickstarter-backed Harriet Tubman: Demon Slayer."
