Fatbottom is a bookshop specialising in independent comics and self-published works. Located right in the heart of El Raval, the shop serves as a haven for those seeking something beyond the commercial circuit. Fanzines, signature comics and hard-to-find rarities take centre stage here. The space is small, but the selection is meticulously curated, with books displayed openly, almost like pieces in a gallery. Fatbottom is a meeting point for the alternative graphic scene.

This is good to know

- Comic book author Chris Ware described Fatbottom as “the best bookstore in the world,” a recognition that has helped establish it as an international benchmark within the independent comic scene.
