was wondering if there were any places to get niche stuff. the commercial places like all star comics, minotaur and metropolis books have been alright for getting the big publisher stuff but I was wondering if there were any smaller places I should know about to get rarer stuff from smaller overseas publishers. preferable if the store is in the cbd. thanks!

A lot of the niche stuff in Australia is online only:
Cockatoo comics
Three Sheep Press
Rumor Books
Silent Army
Glom Press
Trash Cult
In the Melbourne CBD you didn't mention Sticky Institute, Paperback Bookshop or Readings, none are predominantly comics focused, but you can usually find some good stuff.
Also the RWL library at Melbourne Uni is pretty decent
Also worth checking out the local comic shows and zine fairs (Festival of the Photocopier, Halloozeen, Home cooked etc)

The only one I was aware of was Cockatoo Comics. Exactly the type of stuff I've been looking for. I don't actually live in Melbourne and live in a smaller shittier city with even more limited options so navigating around the Melbourne is still p tricky for me. I've checked out Readings before but I'll be sure to visit Sticky Institute and Paperback Bookshop. |
