Is there anywhere in Cork which sells graphic novels/ comics?

Thinking of trying to Hunt down the source graphic novel of The Road to Perdition and The Sin City graphic novels.

There's a shop somewhere around the Paul street area, wandered in there once, think it's near the Mercer book shop.

the Cork shop is pretty good, i though. If you can't get hold of them you can always get them off Amazon fairly easily.

Here's the original Perdition:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0671009214/qid=1095754144/sr=1-6/ref=sr_1_10_6/026-5496507-3228404

And the original Sin City:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1852864680/qid=1095754210/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_3_1/026-5496507-3228404

They've got stuff in right now, if you're quick.

As they've had some success, there are now various offshoots, reprints and reissues, but if memory serves these are the place to start.

(I used to be very friendly with Richard Piers Rayner, the artist on Perdition, but I haven't heard from him in years. He works very slowly and has an incredible obsessive attention to detail. Hope you enjoy it. :) )
