They've been around forever, but the shop has a great selection of old and new publications. You can find all your monthlies here, create a pull pile, and browse the archives. Great selection of trade paperbacks and hard cover collections. Some harder to find editions as well. They also have an decent selection of figures and other collectibles. Prices are fair, and the archives are typically priced competitively. The service is always friendly and helpful. They've never messed up a pull pile for me and they'll always check to see if I need something ordered. Whenever I'm in the area I make it a point to stop back here and shop.

I like to browse collectible stores, but unfortunately there seems to be a dearth of local places…read morethat have toys from the 90s and 2000s that I usually look for. So, Symbiote was such a lucky surprise! I didn't expect to find this figure here! I collect toys of this one specific character so I couldn't pass it up. They even gave me a small discount which was cool. Totally worth going to if you're a collector of more niche stuff, you never know what you might find. It might be the only place in the area that has a good selection from the timeframe I'm interested in.

In the York, PA area visiting family and noticed this comic shop that was open on a Monday. Decided…read moreto stop by and check it out. Wow! This is one of the nicest comic/action figure/misc stores I have ever seen. Layouts were clear and grouped by interest. Displays were carefully designed with the collector in mind. The amount of stock is great, especially back issues. I saw something I've never seen before - ECs from the 50s!! One area that I am still collecting. Most stores only carry the later reprints. Nice, but none that I need at the time. There are separate displays for comics, magazines, action figures, sals items, suggested reading, and a nice area just for kids with a great selection. The manager was helpful,and very knowledgeable, and we had great conversations. There are multiple areas marked for sales prices, including several boxes of low priced comics and magazines. And especially of note: I read recently of the difficulty of finding new packs of Pokemon cards. Some dealers were charging $9 to $13 for the new packs, due to shortages. Comic Store West has them for $6, with a limited amount you can buy. That alone tells me a lot about caring and watching out for the consumer. If you are in the York area looking for comics, this should definitely be your first stop! Highly recommended.

After trying nearly a dozen comic/game shops in the York-Lancaster-Harrisburg area, I can tell you…read morethat Comic Store West is my favorite. It has a bit of everything and the staff is always pleasant. Prices are reasonable compared to other local shops and they gladly order an extra copy of something just for you if you let them know in advance.

Honestly, I am not sure how this place is still around after so many years, but it is still there and I still love dropping in when I am back in town. The shop specializes in monthly subscriptions so you can easily add yourself to a list to get the next drop each month or you can browse for something new. He carries some back issues for popular titles and if you can't find what you are looking for, he will try and order it for you. I stop in for the expertise and recommendations though. When I am looking for something new, the owner can give me a good deal of titles to try. His last recommendation for me was Y The Last Man and I loved it! If you are heading to the coffee shop across the street, stop in, pick up something new or the latest release of your favorites and enjoy with your favorite coffee drink. It's locals and guests to the area that will keep this place alive against the big box stores!
