Non-U.S. Comic Publishers and Magazines

[grubcubman]

Hi keedos.  I have a little online used bookshop that I've been running for a lil over a year now, and I'm starting to add a comics distribution component focusing on non-U.S. artists and publications.  Periodically I'll see some great cartoonist mentioning work in a publication overseas and I can't swing the shipping costs for one book, and I kinda thought others might have had the same experience. One that I'm really hoping to bring in is Frankenstein Magazine from Italy

With that in mind, I've contacted a few places but could use some pointers as to which publishers or publications might be good to bring in.  I'm mostly looking for stuff that I haven't found on the sites of any other U.S. stores -- it seems like places like Breakdown and Shortbox are pretty well covered.  And I'm also hoping to have a multilingual shop, if that's relevant.  Any tips?

I like the swedish zine 'Det Grymma Svärdet' but since I am not located in US, I have no clue if it is already easy to buy it there.

The only two UK publishers of note I can immediately think of that you haven't already mentioned are Landfill - www.landfilleditions.com/ - and Decadence Comics - www.decadencecomics.com/Home - no idea how available they are stateside.

There's a lot of chinese stuff that would be great to get in too. Worth looking into, stuff like what Paradise Systems has.
