Where do you look for comics books in Vancouver?
Lucky’s Comics at Main and King Edward.

What’s your favourite comic book about Vancouver?
True Loves by Jason Turner and Manien Bothma. Locally published romantic series by husband wife creative team. It really captures the true Vancouver identity.

Rebecca Dart, her first book, Rabbithead is a brilliant creative little story. She is working on a new story for Dark Horse Comics check out her stuff here.

What is your favourite building in Vancouver?
There is a house on the North side of King Edward between Cambia and Oak that looks like it was built by a hobbit.

What’s your favourite bar?

By far The Three Lions at 1 East Broadway. Dangerously close to my home.

Bonus:
What’s the best yoga studio?
Three Lions—my favourite yoga move is the bringing glass too mouth.

Thanks Robin!
