Burbank’s House of Secrets in the thick of DC Comics relaunch
The excitement over DC’s “New 52″ relaunch was palpable at midnight store openings across the nation earlier this week for the release of Justice League #1. That comic and Flashpoint #5 were the big offerings, and House of Secrets in Burbank was one of the shops that opened its doors.
House of Secrets recently celebrated its 20th year of selling books — having started as Acme Comics (1991-1995), then morphed to House of Mystery (1995-1997) before getting its current name — but store owner Paul Grimshaw said he had never seen a turnout at a midnight event like this.
