Rimmer's Ooptician
- Rimmer's Ooptician is a business in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Rimmer's Ooptician is an optician's office in Washington, DC. It is located at the bottom of a four-story building, presumably situated below apartments. It does not appear to be far from the White House, and is across the street from Furman's Weight Watchers.
"Rimmer" either had a macabre sense of humor or hired incompetent sign painters.
Fiction
Marvel Comics UK continuity
As a team of remote-controlled Insecticons rampaged through the greater Washington area, Rimmer's Ooptician was unfortunately in the path of their onslaught; the building next to them (evidently a McDonald's) was hit by a direct volley from the Insecticon Bombshell, although it looked like the shop's window glass had been broken prior to that attack.[1] Possibly it had been vandalized and looted during the chaos.
(Note: This business was obviously a nod to Ian Rimmer, who at various times edited the UK comic and wrote both text and strip stories for same.)
