Following Forbidden Planet's purchase of 18 Inverness Street's legendary Mega City Comics, the store will re-open as Forbidden Planet Camden on Saturday April 5th 2025!
Here’s an update from Forbidden Planet's owners, Vivian Cheung & Nick Landau:
“We'll be relaunching this vital Camden institution - with a bang! - on Saturday April 5th 2025.
We're giving away a range of amazing comic-book freebies - first come, first served and while stocks last - courtesy of Dark Horse and Titan Comics!
Plus: we have an all-star line-up of UK comic creators joining us at the store to celebrate our launch day with exclusive signings:
From 2pm to 3pm, Camden comics fans can meet with award-winning comics writers Ram V and Al Ewing who'll be signing copies of Al's ABSOLUTE GREEN LANTERN #1 and Ram’s RESURRECTION MAN: QUANTUM KARMA #1!
From 4pm to 5pm, our old friend and all-time global comics art legend Dave Gibbons will be making a rare Camden visit and signing his legendary work (including, of course, his signature creation WATCHMEN).
And that's really just the beginning!
Throughout April 2025, Forbidden Planet Camden will be showcasing all of the new store elements that will be revolutionising Inverness Street and making Camden Town even cooler than it already is (if that were possible).”
