FYI If youve never really entered the Hot Topic stores in most major malls (like me lol) consider it. There is currently a lot of Batman merchandise (primarily comic styled).
Besides numerous mens womans and childres T-shirts, they have rings, neckleses, wallets, and stickers. The one near me has Hush figures and Monogram's interlocking PVC's and the Batman JLU paperweight!

[shadow=red,left,300]It's been awhile since I went into Hot Topic, sounds like I need to pay the place a visit. Thanks for the heads up.[/shadow]

I go into hot topic most times i go to the mall. I just go in for the toys. They have a surprising amount of action figures at that place.

Ive been there before briefly, but other than the obvious T-shirts and baseball hats, Ive never noticed their broader merchandise selection. For the most part Ive only ever window shopped while walking past... actually entering the store never wouldve seemed to accomplish anything but to remind me how very "old" I am!

I know that feeling Batlaw and I am not even that old. My style of dress would likely be considered "preppy" and when I walk in there I feel like a freak. I

Nah, the store here in Hawaii is pretty cool, the people that work there always say hi and are usually really friendly when I walk in. I picked up a book bag just for the collection but the cool thing is that it came with a bat-signal pen flashlight. It is not a bad flashlight if you use it for that but it shines the cleanest batsignal of any flashlight type batsignal I have. Even from a good distance it is very visable. I hope I can change the battery on that thing cause I've been playing with it so much! lol Anyway, I also got the wallet and belt from the store. They get some pretty nice stuff from time to time. Almost feels like the old WB store with alot of other...stuff as well. (vVv) I know that feeling Batlaw and I am not even that old.

LOL... just funnin... but jeeez [shadow=purple,left,300]LOL! My typical Hot Topic shopping session lasts about 40 seconds, I run in there, look for what I'm looking for, get it and leave.
But the people are nice, and they usually have a lot of cool comic related merchandise beyond the disturbing vinyl and bungee vampire ware. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing! [/shadow]

I picked up the book bag and wallet for the SDCC. For the most part, my Hot Topics aren't that bad. They've even tracked down figures for me in the past and had it transferred to another store. Trust me, if a guy who's going to be 40 in a year can go in, you guys and gals can brave the storm. Who knows, you might find a new favorite store. I've found too many things there, that were sold out every where else. Another store that has a cool Batman wallet(leather), is Spencer's. I'm going to pick that one up today or tomorrow. That way I have one that goes with my slacks and one that goes with my jeans.

If you look past all the creepy stuff you can usualy find some pretty cool stuff. but some times you see something there that you really, REALLY, did not want to see.
