Art(s) on the Air with Lee Heidel of Neighborhood Comics

Join Kate Stanton Melendez for an interview with Lee Heidel, Owner and Managing Partner of Neighborhood Comics.    Neighborhood Comics is downtown Savannah's comic book specialty store. Open 7 days a week from 11AM-7PM, Neighborhood Comics is located just steps from Forsyth Park, at 1205 Bull Street. They offer a full line of new comic books and graphic novels, as well as extensive back issues and key books. You can also find toys, statues, collectibles, and books for young readers. New comics and graphic novels are restocked every Wednesday.    If you've ever wondered what goes into producing sequential art, this is the place to be. Since 2021 Lee & Neighborhood Comics have had a dedicated Artist-in-Residence Program. Select artists have been on-site creating sequential art in some form (comics, storyboards, layouts, etc.) for a minimum of three days per week totaling ten hours or more, in one-month blocks. You can find a list of past, present, and future artists on their website, and apply to participate. (Openings starting July 2027.)   Join Neighborhood Comics next door at White Whale Craft Ales on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Wednesdays of every month from 6PM-10PM for a Neighborhood Drink n' Draw. It's a free community event for comics and artists of all ages to work on projects, draw in a relaxed setting, and make some friends. Neighborhood Comics also holds book & zine clubs, book signings, & holds an annual SAVAGE FST cultural exhibition each fall.    A second location, Neighborhood Comics Clubhouse, is located at 822 E Derenne Ave., near Waters in Savannah, GA. It's open five days per week & is dedicated to discount comics and graphic novels. They offer thousands of $1 back issues, as well as toys, statues, and collectibles.        Lean more, shop, support, and follow here: https://neighborhoodcomics.com https://www.instagram.com/nbrhdcomics
