Stylish bar which is a recent (November 2021) adornment to the town's characterful Victorian Arcade. The split-level ground floor is decked out in Art Deco style with a dark-tiled floor, walls in two shades of teal blue and lots of light wood fittings.Upstairs are two drinking areas in similar vein, one featuring a marvellous original Rock-ola jukebox. On the walls are artworks by owners Dean and Fiona; the former is a renowned comic book artist (which is where the name of the bar comes from) while Fiona specialises in work based around American pin-up art of the 40s/50s. The three handpumps offer a changing choice of local beers while the seven keg fonts also rotate with two light beers, two dark ones, a sour, a lager and a cider. Lots of interesting cans and bottles as well. The former premises of the excellent Vinyl Underground record shop have recently been incorporated into the pub (with the shop moving across the way).
