The Danger Room, an Olympia, Washington comix shop has been around for well over a decade. The store has been a champion and promoter of self-published, small press, and alternative comix. Olympia's annual comics festival, hosted by Danger Room, has been unusual in that it is artist-centered. The vender tables are frequently manned by the creators themselves.
When Frank worked there he even talked me into reprinting special Danger Room editions of my old comix to put up for sale! And I did it! (in print runs of 5 copies each. No, none of those comix are there now) This guy must be a hypnotist.
Anyway, according to an email I just received from an employee, it is now official that Pat and Kendra have sold the Danger Room to former employees Frank and Casey. Should be interesting to watch how this impacts Oly's amazing evolution as a comix center.
Thanks Pat and Kendra (and Chelsea!) for your efforts. And best of luck to Frank and Casey.
