    Comics On the Green is located three blocks from the Mall at Steamtown (where we parked) and a block from the Lackawanna County Courthouse, so it's not hard to find. They have both a street and indoor entrance. The shop is not overly large and appears to have been two smaller shops merged into one. They had a large stock of new books on several shelves. LARGE well stocked selection of Graphic novels spread across several bookshelves. The shop stocked a decent amount of longboxes from various eras with a wide variety of titles including a few budget boxes. Side room of the store had a nice selection of various toys and collectables, but they don't stock many gaming items like Magic The Gathering or HeroClix. Shop had significant foot traffic during my visit. Owner was busy but friendly. Comics On the Green is a really solid shop making great use of an oddly shaped space. 2016 update: Due to the closure of another shop in Central PA, this is now the best shop in Eastern/Central PA outside of the Allentown and Harrisburg metro areas, so I've changed my rating to five stars.

    1st printing comic for only $10

    I went here looking to expand my Walking Dead comic collection and left with way more items than I anticipated for a great price. The workers are super friendly and helpful

    See all

    I attended a League Cup as a player on December 7th, 2025. During one of the rounds, I witnessed…read morethe following incident between two players, I will refer to here as Player 1 and Player 2. Player 1, who was new to completive play, shuffled his deck after a deck search, but did not offer it to Player to for a cut before drawing from a card effect. Player 2 called a judge after this happened. After reviewing the situation, the judge issued Player 1 a warning for failing to present the deck for a cut. Following this ruling, Player 2 became visibly upset and began using profanity and getting very angry, where I was feeling unsafe. Player 1 attempting to deescalate the situation responded, "you don't have to rule shark me over it." Player 2 then escalated the situation by saying, " meet me outside and see what F***ing happens" along with other curses and violent threats. The head judge, Alan, attempted to disqualify both players, despite Player 1 being the target of the threats. Player 2 left the venue. Player 1 stated he would contact the police regarding the threats if he was disqualified, the judges allowed Player 1 to stay and finish the tournament, where he placed second. During the tournament, Judge Alan proceeded to act unprofessionally towards Player 1, and threw prize packs aggressively at him at the end of the rounds. After the event concluded, the judges informed Player 1 that he was banned from future tournaments at that store. Based on what I witnessed, and as an active member in the community and pokemon professor, I believe this decision was unfair, as Player 1 did not instigate the confrontation and was subjected to direct threats from Player 2. This store and the judges have a very bad reputation in the area, being unfair to new players and unsafe for women to play. The judges have also made fun of the community calling them "autistics". I strongly believe that they should not be in good standings with the Pokemon Play Community and should not be a sanctioned store.

    This gaming store is located on Main Street in downtown East Stroudsberg. With Spider-Man and a…read moresmiling Pikachu beckoning from the main window display, it's hard not to walk in and check it out. Inside the store, the first area to greet you is board games, with options for different game styles and interests available. Pretty ok selection for reasonable prices. Towards the middle of the store is the cash register area on the right with collectors' "weapons" displays overhead for safe keeping and display. To the left is a section with American DC/Marvel comics and a small shelf of manga. Further back is a smaller, more specific modeling and other comic related section, followed by open tables in the back for Magic and other card games. Terrific idea to incorporate tables for player interaction and provide a space for gamers to enjoy games in person. In the very back is an e-sports area with consoles and computers set up. When I visited, these weren't in use, but good idea for non-covid times. I also noticed signs posted up for special game nights on certain days a week, for example one sign listed a Pokémon weekly game night. Covid-related: staff wore masks as did most of the patrons. There is a sign on the door requesting customers to wear face coverings. There did not seem to be a limit on # of people in the store, and when I was there on a Saturday early afternoon there was probably around 10 people in the front section of the store and about a dozen seated in the game-play area in the back.

Whatever your nerd heart desires, whether it is comic books, movies, cds, game consoles, action figures, clothing, plush toys, etc etc. This place will scratch your itch. Can't recommend enough.

    I've visited this place once or twice a year over the past decade when I am in the area. Comparing…read morethe the many similar type stores around the country, I'll give a few points on this particular place. They have a pretty comprehensive variety in stock both among and between categories of both new and used/vintage (video games, music, movies, collectables, comics and so forth). Each category has its own section of the store. Their prices used to be a bit under the equivalent ebay cost even before shipping (if a game was $20 on ebay + $5 shipping, they would have it as $16), but over the years they caught up to, and are now basically same prices plus or minus a couple dollars even after considering shipping, however they will sometimes offer sales on categories (buy one get one 50% off or buy three get one free) which give them back the pricing advantage. The exception is the rarer stuff, which can be more volatile in price, so sometimes a sought after game can be somewhat over or under priced for example. I've bought dozens of games, comics, consoles from them over the years, all worked, and the one time I had an issue they resolved it ( I bought a complete run of new mutants which noted it had a reprint of 98, but did not note having a reprint of 87, so I was able to return after opening the set and finding this). On the selling side, I rarely sell stuff, but like anywhere, they are designed to make a profit, so if you are looking to sell for cash by definition you are not going to get market value, so I recommend getting store credit, and then waiting for a sale day to buy other stuff you want and you might end up ahead of the market rate on your trade in! The reason its not 5 stars is the place can be a bit cramped, and hard to browse if there are more than a handful of people in the area you are shopping, and they over pack the back issue comics bins such that you can't really flick though the issues, you need to pull them out of the tightly packed bin to see them, and if you want to buy something in a case (understandably most valuable items are locked in cases) it can take a while to get somebody to get it for you to buy.

    I love this place... I purchased several rare collections from this shop and found the prices…read morepretty good, but of course when you see something that you really want and know it is hard to come by price doesn't always matter. What matters is the wonderful collections. Hard to find books to impossible to find books, well almost impossibe... and some pretty amazing old prints in the back of the store are excellent buys as well. I think what holds me back from giving this place 5 stars is the fact that I've been going to this store for about 5 years, I go about once a month and often bring friends PLUS have made some rather pricy purchases (meaning between $50 and $295) and each time I walk in I expect the owner to know who I am and everytime I walk in she acts like she never saw me before. I think she should get to know her customers better, I mean, just because I'm not interested in her big white poodle doesn't mean I'm not interested in her book collection... The other gripe I would have would be I onced asked her for a book that I couldn't locate and she did an internet search and found it and turned to me and said that I should go to eBay. If I wanted to go to eBay I would have. What I wanted was for someone to get the book for me and have it delivered to the store so I wouldn't have to be home to receive it. Its called customer service!

Especially well-represented were mysteries and westerns. One of the owners is also a professional bookbinder. I'm taking off one star for the insanely cramped space...you have to be careful moving around in spots. But it's totally worth it to score that one item like....a book on the Beatles with rare photos for only $15! (of COURSE I bought it!) Have I mentioned how much I love places like this?
