TFAW.com is the online shopping portal from the comic book chain Things From Another World, set up by Mike Richardson in 1980 initially as Pegasus Fantasy Books, a 400-square-foot store in Bend, Oregon, which expanded into an eleven-location chain at its height, still with stores in Milwaukie, Beavertob and Universal City, and birthed one of the biggest publishers of comic books today, Dark Horse Comics. However, it seems like their online subscription, preorder and order portal will no longer be available. In a letter sent to subscribers, they state;
