SHOP INFO
GENERAL
Pitkämies is a comic store in Helsinki, run by Jelle Hugaerts (me). I specialize in alternative comics from abroad but i also have a wide selection of finnish comics as well, supporting all the great small publishers who do so much great work here. Here's a list of publishers that i carry: Fantagraphics, Drawn and Quarterly, Topshelf, Picturebox, Pantheon, Buenaventurapress, Bries and finnish publishers such as Huuda Huuda, Asema, Daada, Like, Suuri Kurpitsa, Zum Teufel, Napa, Kreegah Bundolo, Boing Being, Arktinen Banaani etc.
Aside from the comics the Pitkämies offers a nice selection of music and clothing. The music department is in the fine hands of Ifsociety who handpick the gems from the vast sea of good indie records whilst not forgetting all the classic stuff from the past. The vinyl/cd division in the store is about 50%Labels we like are Touch and Go, Subpop, Dischord, SST, Merge and the finnish labels Fonal, Ektro, Lallalal.
Clothing wise I try to pick a good selection of shirts that have an affinity with comics. For now i deal with only a few manufacturers. From Finland I am proud to sell the fine goods of Polkkajam which is a duo from Turku that handmakes their wear with own design. From the states i am glad to import stuff from Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction which hires innovative contemporary artists to design exceptional and wearable pieces that combat the troubling possibility of artwork losing its presence and power in our image-saturated society.
