We follow the store on Instagram now in anticipation of what we my find on our next trip. Can't wait to come back!

There are plushy, puzzles, and puppets. You get the idea. And to top it off, there's a very friendly lady there to help sort it all out for you. The only drawback to the store is that the building is old and not ADA compliant. The entry is via very steep stairs and no landing. It's kind of scary and I'm glad there are handrails. For those with mobility issues, don't worry, as there is in-store pick up, local delivery, and US shipping.

I love BB&C. It's not perfect, but it may as well be. Comic stores are wonderful because they are…read moreusually small, often quaint, and always unique to their entrepreneurs. Bell serves all the right purposes: they sell comic singles, collections and books; they sell gaming cards and accessories, board games, novelties, snacks, and even have a selection of fantasy and scifi books which I consider a bonus in a comic shop. Did I mention the dedicated gaming space? The greater Dayton area is blessed with a lot of shops of this nature but they all have various strengths and weaknesses. Bell has a certain homey feeling that not all the shops around here can replicate. Although I love Maverick's, and I'm fond of Epic Loot, Bell has become my comic stop of choice on Fridays after work (since they stay open late on that day!). I read the other reviews on Yelp and I can understand why some people aren't entirely satisfied, but this shop does everything I need it to, and often does more. Someone mentioned that John is sometimes less than approachable. To that I would say that he is one of a small handful of staff members, and it's entirely likely that he has his stressed out days just like anyone else. I've never seen him be outright rude to a customer. Hell, one night as a teenager I wandered in there after they closed because I didn't see the sign, I misheard him when he said they were closed, and despite my stupidly barging in he let me browse anyway without any trouble. No shop can be everything to everyone. For me though, this one is wonderful. I highly recommend it.

I have a wonderful customer service story to share with all of you regarding this business:…read more During a trip out east to Dayton this past October, my husband and I visited the Bookery; I collect horror memorabilia on an amateur level and wanted to look around the store before we went into Foye's and I ate myself into a sugar coma. When we were in the back of the store, looking at movie posters, we found an original Clockwork Orange poster signed by Malcolm McDowell himself. A Clockwork Orange is my husband's favorite movie. Over the years, I have found an original opening night movie program and one other original poster for my husband, but to date I had not found an autographed piece of movie memorabilia. Later than evening, I found the Bookery online and emailed the store and asked if someone would put the poster aside for me, because I wanted to buy it. The problem is that I live in Washington State, and at this time in our lives, my husband lives in Dayton. I explained this in the email and asked if the store management could help me, especially seeing as my husband might have been in the middle of a move to Virginia. I received an email back from Tim telling me that they would help me in any way they could. Tim then told me that one of the store employees had purchased the poster himself, and that he was present when Mr. McDowell signed it, and so they wanted to make an authentication certificate for me. He also told me not to worry about shipping charges. I sent a money order for the price of the poster, and when he received it, Tim notified me. I decided to just have my husband drive down and pick it up himself, seeing as the sneaky b*stard figured out I'd purchased it for him for Christmas anyway. (How does he DO that?) When my husband picked it up, not only did Tim have the certificate ready, but he also had information on how to have the poster matted or framed so as not to decrease its value. I was so pleased to deal with this business. Tim went out of his way to help me make this purchase possible, and he was generous with tips on preserving the poster. None of this extra attention was necessary, not to mention that he was originally going to mail it for no extra cost to me. I wish more businesses were this kind to their customers. Tim, you and your staff are just awesome. I hope that we will all be able to relocate to Ohio someday so I can spend the rest of my paychecks on Fangoria back issues and candy. Big hug!
