Alternaprint Screen Printing & Comic Shop, Hillsdale
Not only does the Alternaprint Screen Printing & Comic Shop advertise a top-notch selection of comic books and graphic novels, the shop also regularly screens indie films, which are open to the public, and custom prints T-shirts.
Owners Andrew and Katie Gibbs transferred their comic shop business from Chicago to Hillsdale almost a year ago, and have seen success in this small college town ever since.
Both are very knowledgeable about the world of comics and indie culture, so even if you’re not into comics, it’s worth your time to walk downtown, stop in and chat, or catch their movie night on the last Saturday of every month. There’s plenty of room to walk around and check out nerdy stuff, plus there’s great Internet connectivity, and they don’t mind if your Checker Records coffee tags along. It’s a win-win.
