new comic shop in Cobble Hill

NYC folks, there's a new comic shop in Cobble Hill.

Rocketship is Brooklyn's newest comic book and graphic novel store, opening in August at 208 Smith Street, with a wide selection of graphic novels, alternative comics, "DIY" mini-comics, and original comic art. To help celebrate the grand opening, Rocketship will host "Cartoon Brooklyn," a gallery show featuring work by some of Brooklyn's best local artists. Jessica Abel (Artbabe, La Perdida), Dean Haspiel (Opposable Thumbs, The Quitter), Matt Madden (A Fine Mess, Odds Off), and Josh Neufeld (A Few Perfect Hours, The Vagabonds) will all have work displayed in the store throughout August and September. An opening reception will be held on July 29th, from seven until ten in the evening, complete with an open bar that will be serving wine and beer in the store's garden. (Please contact Alex Cox at 718-797-1348 to be added to the guest list.)
