Page 45’s Mark Simpson Passes Away
According to a letter received and published by Neil Gaiman on his web journal, Mark Simpson, co-owner of the influential Page 45 comics retailer in Nottingham, UK, passed away July 31 after a sudden illness. Page 45 is a much-lauded store in terms of diversity of material and format; Gaiman refers to it in a note accompanying the letter as "the best graphic novel shop I've ever been to."
