Yes. Sign of the Dragon's been gone about 5 years now as well ! You can
scrath that off the list but maybe we should start a list of shops we've
loved and note if they burnt down or not..... which several of them appear
to have done.
Orbital has a website at http://www.myspace.com/orbitalcomics
FP's: http://www.forbiddenplanet.com/store/WhereWeAre.htm
Mighty World of Comicanna:
http://www.comicana.com/about.asp?mscssid=D1WAJSKFFJ599JJKBLTE7JWW43RS3A77&
Gosh: http://www.goshlondon.com/contact%20us.html
Murder One appears to be over the road from the old site:

Blimey. I'm guessing our "recommended bookshops" page[*] is quite out of
date
then?
Having done this a few times a best route now would probably be out at
Tottentham Court Road, into Orbital which is v near Center Point on
Charring Cross rd (center pt side), through Denmark St (paying respect at
the site of the old FP1 - I can't remember where FP2 used to be !) and up
to FP Superstore on Shaftsbury Ave, up Shaftsbury Ave to Mighty World of
Comicana (I remembered the name) and then on to Gosh opposite the British
Museum. Then walk back up New Oxford St (past the old FP combined store)
to
TCR tube, the Virgin Megastore and some serious shopping.
Where would Ultimate Burger (or whatever it's called) feature if it were
integrated into the schedule. We can't shop on an empty stomach :)
Although I guess it depends on how late we kick things off.
