Hi there, I'm Gloriana and part of Walt's Comic Shop Team since 2023. I'm mostly responsible for online stuff like ads and our content, but most of my time in life and at work is spent reading graphic novels, sometimes mangas, and also big books but only at night in bed where they won't crush me with their bare weight.

By the way, here's a collection of some of my all-time favorite books we have in store.
