Escapist Comics: as threatened, the Dark Carnival folks opened up a comic book store in Berkeley, bootstrapping it with the comics "left over" from Comic Relief. It's on Claremont Ave, out next to Dark Carnival, a.k.a. too far from a BART station for a out-of-towner lazybones like myself. But it's something. (I would have relayed the link sooner, but I was out at Isotope Comics. Because, you know, it's in San Francisco and I live in San Francisco and all.)
