Yes, the term geek has been devalued a lot in recent years, and we geeks don't like it anymore, because it seems that "anyone can be one"... Hahaha the key is that now it is treated as something mainstream and overexploited, and more than one person who is a fan of comics, role-playing games, genre films and literature, music in physical formats, etc. find the term annoying.
Especially because it seems that the limit is manga, anime, and superheroes... when things go much further and are simply hobbies and interests that have existed since the beginning of civilization.
Let's talk a little about everything that we "geeky" or "culturally dispersed" people like the most.
But anyway, that's what labels are for. Today we're listing some shops in Badalona where you can "still" buy comics. books horror, fantasy and science fiction, board games, miniatures and role-playing games, and even those damn Funko pop toys or that crap that's now fashionable to have hooked to your mobile phone or on your crocs.
Where to buy comics, manga, board and role-playing games, and card games in Badalona
In Badalona and any city on the outskirts of Barcelona like Santa Coloma, Montgat, Sant Adria de Besรฒs, Hospitalet, etc., there are a LOT of FREAKS. Exactly the same as in any city or town. But these are cities with extremely high population density, and often what happens is that, among them, they are largely unknown, since, as in any medium-sized or large city like Barcelona, we travel to the capital for work and shopping, and then return to our neighborhoods. In the case of Barcelona, we geeks always go to areas like Arc de Triomf, Sant Antoni, etc. to buy our gear.
Geekdom and collecting have never enjoyed such a good moment in Badalona as now, with such a rich and high-quality shopping environment and variety: Super cool shops and specialization
This is why we should go out and explore and discover new neighborhoods and neighboring cities whenever we can, as there is so much to see, and it's getting better all the time, far from the prejudices that have been lingering since the 1970s.
