Comic Book Heroes, the Latest Independent Store for Romford Shopping Hall

We posted about one comic store closing down in Essex, England over the weekend. Well, nature it seems abhors a vacuum. And as that store was shutting, another new comic book store Comic Book Heroes was opening down the road at the Romford Shopping Hall in Havering, on the border of London and Essex.

Located in Unit 20, at 43 Market Place, it many more independent outlets in the shopping centre, without a chain store in sight. Not even a Starbucks. So definitely not a Forbidden Planet.
