Safe Spaces trail- Worlds Apart

This is the transcript from the podcast around Worlds Apart. You can listen to the podcast here. This was written by Sophie.

What are comics if not different worlds we seek out to get lost in and find comfort in? So what does that make comics shops? To me, they're a gateway to those worlds. And Worlds Apart is the greatest example of that, because it's even in their name. Worlds Apart. Because comics can be worlds and stories apart, but comic shops bring them together and keep them all in one easy place to access. And with Worlds Apart specifically, it's not just the comics that make it a safe space. It's the comfortable atmosphere and knowledge that the people in there are there for the exact same reason you are. It is this sense of community that is wonderful to feel in this space.

Worlds Apart is a haven for you to escape the busy streets and delve into stories that are both new and old. With staff to help you navigate the maze of never ending stories, you will leave with a bag full of stories and a head full of adventures you are ready to read about.

There are not many spaces in Liverpool entirely dedicated to comics and wonderful nerd culture, but Worlds Apart truly does stand apart from the rest.

So, what are you waiting for? Step inside and see where your imagination will go next.
