Ever dream of owning a comic book store? Do sales of comic books track the hottest comic-books-turned-movies?
With only a week to go till Comic-Con International in San Diego, we talk to Saeed Arjumand, an Emirati, about why he decided to do just that.
In April he opened Comic Stop, a small business in Dar Wasl mall dedicated to comics.
Arjumand, who is also a trained comic book illustrator, discusses why he decided to open his business, what the best-selling comics are in Dubai, and whether buying comics can be a good investment.
