 Shane Wallace
- Manager
Stowing away inside a long box of comics, Shane currently
resides in Lincoln Park's DC back
issue section. Living off air conditioning condensation and spiders, Shane gives
helpful advice and friendly customer service and he's clawed his way to the top
of this north-side food chain. Stop
in and tell him, "Hello;" he has very few friends.

Jeremy is living proof
that annoying kids eventually turn into somewhat-less-annoying adults, albeit adults that provide valuable retail skills. He
first started shopping at the Lincoln Park Graham Crackers branch in the 7th grade, but it wasn’t until the end
of his sophomore year that he asked for a job. He is a devoted believer in the church of Grant Morrison
and aspires to babble as artfully as Morrison does one day. In his spare time, he attends Northwestern
University in Evanston, where he is preparing to write DC’s entire Teen Titans line in five
years.
Lincoln Park Store
Testimonial:
hello,
my name is Jono Rodriguez. I used to frequent at your Graham Crackers
location before moving to Texas. First, let me just say that I miss
your store terribly. **** **** is the worst comic store ever,
especially the one that is closest to me. Only one of the seven
employees that work there are even remotely interested in comics or
collectables. The others are either between ages 16 and 24 and ONLY
care about Magic cards or a fare-weathered mother or a "guy who just
needs a part time job." Their back issues are boardless and awfully
organized, if you really call cramming all the A's, B's, C's, etc. into
several long boxes organization (as in no titled separations - just
alphabetized).
I think the best thing about Graham Crackers is the separation of
companies (Marvel, DC, Indy, etc.) which you don't see in nearly any
comic stores. I still order online when I need a comic I can't find at
the, yes, TWO comic stores in a twenty mile radius. And the shipping is
super fast. I'll order it late Wednesday night and receive it
on Saturday morning. Fastest shipping service ever.
But I digress. It's easy to like a comic store, but it's not until you
leave that comic store and go to a much lesser comic store before you
love that store. |
