He wasn't sure they had a comic series I was looking for in stock. He looked it up on the computer and went down to the basement to get me the issue I was looking for. I also enjoyed the zine wall as this allowed me to browse local comic artist creations that you would not usually find. I wish I lived closer to this shop.

There is an ice cream and chocolate shop downstairs. Most comic books are $5. And then there a bins with special ones, saw ones in those bins $8-150. No AC as it's a super old building I think from the 1800s one of the last commercial storefronts. Has such charm. Very close to glen park. Can get ice cream then walk in the park to see the waterfall.

This is a great place to go if you like sports, collect trading cards, or need any great gifts…read more They really have everything from sports cards to trading card games on one side of the store, and then sports merchandise like jerseys and clothing on the other side. I went in to browse around and see if anything sounded good before the start of the football season. That was a mistake for my wallet because everything looked like I needed it. They do a great job of keeping everything organized here. Sabres and Bills stuff in different sections, sports cards and trading cards broken down into different spots on the other side. They also have so much room for the events that they hold here. Along with the amount of product they have, they also have some cool pop culture collectibles on display which makes the whole place have a fun feel. Service here is good. Sometimes the value is a little high. Some markups on trading cards could be a little lower but oh well, that's the sign of the times I guess. Overall, if you need a gift or just looking for yourself, D&A's is the place to go!

INSANE COMPANY WANTS A BANK WIRE FOR PREORDER AFTER INITIAL PAYMENT, USE CAUTION!…read more Ever receive a bank wire request AFTER making a credit card purchase? How about for a presell/preorder item, that isn't in stock yet? That's exactly what happened with Dave & Adam's, absolutely mind blowing. I ordered a presell product on their website, paid with my credit card, received confirmation, thank you for your order; the normal stuff, everything seems fine. The next day, I receive an email with a bank wire request from D&A to complete the order (see attached picture of email). My initial reaction was this must be someone attempting to scam me; a bad actor, but it was actually D&A. Obviously, I told them absolutely not. This not only costs fees (bank wire fees) but is essentially handing them 100% of the money upfront, for a product they do not even have yet! Additionally, like handing them cash money upfront, I assume 100% of the risks, for a product they do not have yet. Imagine going to Best Buy, Walmart, heck even any local retail shop, to make a purchase with your credit card; they accept it, they swipe it, everything is fine, and then they say "actually, can you get with your bank to wire us money instead?" Now imagine the item you're buying doesn't exist yet, you're not only paying full msrp but a bit more in price for their markup, paying bank wire fees, and that ultimately they'll do their best to get it for you. You literally can't make it up, this may be the most insane request I have ever seen a retailer or store do, and I have seen and experienced some interesting things. Be cautious with whom you do business with!

Best comic book store EVER!!! I've been a comic book collector since I was 13 and have been to…read moreseveral comic shops and this is by the far best I've ever been too. I came across this store from boyfriend who is in the military and currently stationed in Buffalo. As an anniversary gift he was on the hunt for issue #300 of the amazing Spider-Man. I've been trying for years to get a hold of this comic but could never find it at a reasonable price nor in good condition. My boyfriend found Empire Comics and talked with the store owners. They went above and beyond to help him! Not only did they managed to get a hold of the comic but were able to get one that was highly graded! I was in disbelief when I saw it and had to see this place for myself! I'm from CA and during my visit to see my boyfriend during the holidays, I went in to the store. I was welcomed by the store owners who were incredibly friendly and down to earth. They are fluent in all marvel and some anime. The store has a ton of good finds but if your looking for something specific they will go above and beyond to help you find it. As a comic collector and marvel nerd this means the world to me. I strongly value a business that goes above and beyond for their customers. After choosing a handful of comics, the store owners were kind enough to throw in a free comic and because I told them of my love for Spider-Man, they also threw in a free poster. But the best part was, free Christmas cookies were thrown in too! I had such a blast the entire time I was there. I really appreciate that they were so welcoming unlike other comic book stores who are often after your money or feel superior in their knowledge and like to belittle their customers. I will for sure be a regular for them all the way from California. Thank you Empire Comics for your fantastic service and awesome experience!

Went to hand over my card and without missing a beat in his phone conversation the guy says "no plastic". I'm thinking "oh wow okay contactless pay only is intense but i totally get it" and pull up my Apple pay. Still on the phone: no. Cash only. Us: wait. Really? Okay uh do you have an atm Still on phone: no. Whoever he was on the phone said something along the lines of: "you really have to start taking them" because he said "nope. Not doing it. Cash only" He wasn't wearing a mask but he was also on the phone the whole entire time so I didn't even notice until we were like "uh okay. Well bye" If you are going to only take cash and don't have an atm at least put a sign on your door saying "cash only". Most people will see it, head over to an atm, and come back to buy something. If it was ten years ago it wouldn't be a thing, but I don't think I have had cash on me in at least two years.
