The excitement was…read morequickly extinguished when they oversold an item on their website and did nothing to notify me for 2 days until I drove to their shop 30 minutes away and the employees had done nothing with my order. Upon warning other customers in their discord, they kicked me and blocked me so no one would see my honest review. Then via email they called me malicious, aggressive and negative when their mistake was completely out of my control. Highly defensive, excuses for everything just like the other negative reviews below, I won't be returning.

What a lovely bookstore!

The instrumental music was playing, the owner was very kind and welcoming. The customers were browsing and it was the most relaxing environment with so many wonderful resources.

This is a very cool shop.

I enjoyed the array of pinball and other game cabinets in the back. Every play is 25-50 cents so you also won't blow off a lot of money playing there for a while. All in all this store has something for something for everyone and if you want a fun stop in Rhinebeck, this is the place.

Started going to Dewey's regularly after my local comic store went online only. And believe me, it…read moretook me a while hunting for the next perfect comic shop when my old one had done such an amazing job over the years. Unbelievable, but there are a lot of comic shops around that are just not professionally run (I'll just leave it at that) Dewey's is definitely a solidly run comic shop. I had been to them a few times in their old location, but parking was horrible over there so I didn't go often. Their new location in Dover actually has great parking so it is easy getting there. At first, the professionalism of the store sold me on making it my regular store. But as I kept going back, i realized just how amazing the staff is there. They know their comic stuff, and are really friendly. I found out after I had praised John (the main counter staff) to a friend that he has been there for many years and is a big part of the store's appeal... I can definitely see that as he's been nothing but amazing to me.. When I set up my pull list in the beginning, I mentioned that in addition to my main books could he throw anything Captain Cold related in. Yes, i know it was a vague request that couldn't be "programmed" easily, but I figured I'd mention it. And I've been delighted to find non-Flash books with Captain Cold showing up in my box. That was impressive on quite a few levels. I joined Dewey's for the professionalism, but am staying because of the friendliness and amazing attention to small details... highly recommended!

A very cool comic shop with a lot to offer for comic fans…read more With their ever-present Halloween decor and surprisingly organized interiors, Gotham Comics is not your run of the mill comic shop. From new issues to back log, everything has a neat and tidy place, making browsing quick and effortless. They place a variety of mid-level rare comics ranging in price from $15 to $40 near most of the comic shelves, which make for both excellent window shopping and dangerous impulse purchases. They have a nice selection of old and new comics, mostly from DC and Marvel, so Gotham might not be great if you're looking for more obscure or niche comic brands. Similarly, this is a comic shop first, and things like games have a small presence. I also have to mention the staff working at Gotham. The employee was super helpful, going above and beyond in looking for issues that I couldn't immediately find. He made my visit feel extra special. The only downside with this comic shop is that it isn't located closer to my home! Otherwise I'd go there every week!

Quaint little comic book shop that totally gives off the "local comic shop" vibe from the 90's…read more Take it for what it is, and don't expect it to have everything you're looking for. But if you're looking for mainstream new releases, chances are you'll find them on release day (maybe the week after too). Not too much else to look at, especially collectibles, so your visit will probably be a whole lot shorter than other comic book shops (which is better for your wallet). But if you're in the area and you're in a pinch for that new Batman comic, this is your place. It was a hot day when I visited and they just had a couple floor fans running. Nothing gets me out of a comic book shop faster than sweaty hands on loose/unbagged books. And for parking, expect to circle around a couple times (plan to pay for a meter). But service is super friendly and they take card. And like I said, for what it is/does it's still a 5 star place

Quaint little shop that's actually bigger than it appears from the outside…read more I personally found it really difficult to locate the issues you're looking for. It's not organized in an obviously clean way. But +1 to the worker who was there when I came in. Really helpful and knew where everything was. Tons of vintage comics, and some modern back issues (but not a whole lot). When I came in on a Saturday, this week's new releases were nearly gone already so I suspect they don't order a whole lot each week. But that wasn't why I visited the shop anyway. I thought the older issues were priced pretty fairly and they also tend to bundle whole series together, in case you're interested in buying the entire set / don't want to hunt down all the issues separately. Not so much in terms of collectibles. Random modern comic book movie memorabilia and old carded GI Joe figures. Some Funko Pop figures, but that's pretty much it. Overall it's a pretty good shop, but again, they get brownie points for knowledgeable staff!

They've got good value comics, a fun selection. Like it a lot better than some of the big chains…read moreout there
