Geoffrey Patterson...owner of Geoffrey's Comics has passed away.

I've always wanted to go to his shop and see his house but never had the chance. Geoffrey loved comics.

I did have a conversation with him once via email and he was very cordial.

RIP, Geoffrey. The world of comics just lost a lot of passion.

The store used to have 2 arcade games, love it, Marvel vs capcom.

 

Beside his comic house, his wedding is also unique, all his guests were dressed in superheroes uniforms; this is back in 80s or something. There is a video interview from the local news, very dedicated and passion about his comic books. The video also shows the inside of his house if I remember correctly.

 

RIP

I only know him through his eBay presence. Was always a good seller and seemed flexible with just about everything he listed. RIP.

Sorry to hear about this, Geoffrey was definitely one of the more unique comic dealers I've met over the years

 

Indeed he was. I loved the guy though. Truly a good man.

RIP Geoffrey....

 

I really enjoyed stopping by his shop on my way home from the Shrine. He will be missed.

RIP Geoffrey...

 

I try to swing by his store whenever I visit LA, and picked up quite a few books over the last 10 years or so...

Is Ted the other one?

 

I wouldn't put Ted into the Geoffrey category.

 

Ted's superpowers are the english language and his berating of customers using 25 cent words that they don't understand.

 

Or threatening to beat up customers with their umbrella's.

So sad, RIP Geoffrey.

He let me put my framed BWS print of Pandora up on his wall for over a month. I was hoping to sell it, but I guess my $100 asking price was too high. That was in the mid 80's.

Cool and friendly guy who wasn't just trying to make a buck but loved comics himself . RIP

Mr. Patterson gave me a solid deal on some boxes of mixed SA and BA comics. I did send some in to CGC and got favorable results.

 

He did have a stash of sorts for certain Customers. He was fair, fairer than most, and he and I got along very well.

 

I never met his children. The day two of them were supposed to be dropping off stuff at the shop something happened, I don't recall right now, but I left before they got there.

 

I also recall his stash of GA comics, but nothing like a Key Batman #1, etc. I got several Roy Rogers and other Dell comics from him.

 

So Long, Geoffrey…

 

CAL and family wishes you the best forever….
