    I'm not a part of the monthly comic book scene so I can't judge this store based on their selection in those regards but I do read graphic novels from time to time and I've always found something of interest here. Plus the owner is very friendly and knowledgeable. I've picked up everything from Tony Millionaire to Charles Burns here and it's in a great spot in town right next to Strictly Discs and Trader Joe's.

    Cap City Comics was my first comic book store and I still hold it in very high esteem--a must visit when I'm in Madison.

    I found gold at Bruce's store; one being that he had all the first edition hardcopies of the EC Comic library.

There was a bit of line but it was fairly orderly and everyone moved at a decent pace to pick up to 5 free comic books! (So if you haven't already stopped by for your own, be sure to stop by end of day or before all the free comics are gone). The store itself was pretty organized and neat. There were a few tables by the entrance with artists drawing custom prints and selling sticker drawings. There were rows of shelves full of new comics, all on sale for 20% today (5/7/17) in honor of free comic books day. Although a comic that my boyfriend wanted ran out by the time it was our turn to make our picks, we still picked up a few classical favorites. In summary, head over to Westfield Comics today and check out the place for yourself, you'll bond to find your own favorite comic soon!

    Longtime Customer, Rewarded with Zero Communication…read more I've been a Westfield Comics customer for over 35 years. Until 2025, I would have considered Westfield a five-star company based on my long history with them. Unfortunately, throughout 2025 I experienced a complete breakdown in customer service communication, which ultimately led me to pull my business. Despite multiple emails and voicemails over several months, I received no responses to documented issues, even while new orders continued to be fulfilled. Unresolved issues included: -Being charged for and shipped trade paperbacks when my subscriptions were for single issues, with no response regarding returns or credits. -Being charged shipping three separate times for a single monthly shipment, with no explanation. -Missing subscription issues that were reported and never acknowledged. Receiving some incorrect items in place of missing books, with no replacements ever provided. -Multiple damaged comics due to a change in packing methods. Recent shipments were packed tightly in boxes with no protective dunnage, resulting in visibly damaged corners on numerous books. I reported the damage by listing each affected titles, but received no response. Mistakes can happen in any business. What ultimately drove my decision to leave was the complete lack of communication. After decades as a loyal customer, being consistently ignored made it clear that customer service is no longer a priority. I'm sharing this review strictly to document my experience so other customers can make informed decisions.

    Frugal Muse Books, Music, Video, Inc. was established in 1994 and has been locally owned and…read moreoperated since. DVDs, CDs, LPs, graphic novels, audio books, and real books means they have something for everyone. They donate books to systems that support people in need and at least one other local business! I learned through The Barrymore Theatre that Frugal Muse is a ticket outlet for it. It is super convenient having a neighborhood ticket outlet! I enjoy paying cash that goes directly to the theatre (the bookstore being supportive enough not to add a fee) and that I get a physical ticket! No scan a phone here. I got paper tickets and I love it! My friend that has been with me on each of my ticket procurement outings finds quality low cost dvds for her family at Frugal Muse. Yesterdays selection: "Toy Story 3" still in the shrink wrap. The store is clean, organized, quaint, quiet. It's what I imagine book stores "used to be like", I say having grown up only in national chains environments. There are always a half dozen or more other shoppers when I've been here. Join them! There are always a couple gentlemen working behind the counter and I suspect they would talk books and authors if you engage them. Key tip: Frugal Muse can order new books! Drop in here to order what you want - avoid the national chain! Support local.

    We love coming here to see what else we can read or research! I love the selection of cookbooks and…read moremy husband likes they have an assortment of cds/records. They have a good teen section that's grown over the last few years and a new manga section. Prices are always reasonable and they have a good selection of $2 books. People behind the counter are always friendly and helpful.
