Tim's Corner is the name of the comic book store I went to back in Illinois. It was run by Tim Cederoth, who also appeared in a DC comic book you've never heard of (Wild Dog). I used to head there, to pick up my week's worth of comics and have a dog and a Dew. Maybe play some pinball, the one themed after hockey player Bobby Orr (I never got into that one with the volcano), or a game of Tron.

I was back up there about three years ago. Tim's Corner no longer exists. My old hang-out, gone.

Tim's Corner here is what Tim's may have looked like if it was a game and comic book store: tons of stuff on the windows. Just in case you're interested, Tim's has the following items in the windows, (left to right, top to bottom in the windows):

Hellboy poster, Spelljammer logo poster, Airship Books poster, Crimson Skies window cling, Warhammer 40k Imperial Eagle window cling, Games Workshop poster, Yuh-Gi-Oh poster, Magic: The Gathering poster, something I can't identify, Wizards of the Coast window cling, "no outside food and drinks in store" sign, Open/Closed slider sign with shop hours, credit card logos, Planet Earth (and other tourist traps) poster, the address, d20 poster, Warhammer window cling, Dork Storm window cling, a tournament listing, Games Workshop "Charter Approved" window cling, Deadlands poster, and a poster for Dungeon Magazine. Behind the glass on the left is a Warhammer 40k Space Marine in Terminator armor statue. He's guarding a display selling copies of Mordheim.
