text: I hate to say it, but Darren and I were both a little let down by Toonseum. Darren's a big comics fan (luckily he knew who most of the artists were since there wasn't anything telling visitors who the illustrators were) and I am big into animation (I went to school for it at one time), but we were underwhelmed simply because they don't have much to look at. There's just a hall and then a larger room that they use for meetings and such (it can be rented out or reserved I think). It could be a really cool museum if there was just more to it. I got bored in here after a half hour. \n\nThe gift shop is pretty cool, though even if they don't have anything you can't find at other comics or book shops in the city (they have mostly graphic novels for sale, some new comics, and some toys and curios). But for $5, it's a fun, harmless way to kill some time Downtown.
