I usually walk out with a stack of books to fill in the gaps especially when he runs his amazing sales. He even has a pretty good $1 bin of comics. Bob will usually let you look around a bit before he walks up to see if you're looking for anything in particular. If you're looking for comics this is a place to definitely check out.

This shop is amazing! Walking in to this shop was just a joy! There are so few shops anymore that…read moreactually have a good inventory of toys and action figures. I was blown away by their inventory and everything they had. From Star Wars, Marvel, DC, TMNT, GI Joe, Transformers, Horror Figures and so much more. Something else that I thought was so cool and spoke to my heart was all the toys from my childhood. The guys working here were very friendly and offered help and were there to help when needed. Unfortunately I was short on time so I wasn't able to spend as much time browsing as I wanted. I didn't even get to go through their comics, but they did have several long boxes and what looked liked a pretty nice comic collection. I wish I had found about them earlier so I could have spent more time there. I'm definitely looking forward to my next time in Birmingham so I can visit again. The store is so well stocked and the prices are great. I bought three figures and next time I'm definitely leaving room in my bag. Definitely check them out.

It's nirvana for the nostalgic and middle-aged, and it's hard not to leave with *something* because there are a lot of great deals (and a lot of bank-breakers, too!). You'll leave with an armful of great stuff at a great price and the feeling that it will make perfect sense to drop $300 on a signed Kuiil action figure from "The Mandalorian," which I'll probably do someday. EDIT: I didn't realize I've reviewed it twice now!

Large selection of latest release comics were on display and were easy to browse. Sorted by brand (Marvel, DC and Independent). The center of the store is full of graphic novels, the back edges and display case (at counter where you pay) is full of back issues dating back to Golden Age. Didn't investigate pricing too much, but on the surface it felt like they had reasonable pricing. Staff was friendly and interacted well with the customers. This is kind of out of the way for where I typically am, I would for sure pop back in if I was in the area.

Mr. Reed is a fantastic resource for books and movies, he recommended a movie from an author I was looking for, I watched the whole movie straight through, the next time I was in he had a couple novels by that author. Highly recommended...

This book store is jammed packed with books, collectibles, nostalgia, and love tucked away in ever corner! There were books I read as a child that brought back many great memories when I saw them. The owner is such a lovely guy and very helpful! I could have spent a whole day and too much money lol because when it comes to books I have no self control. I was able to escape with spending only a little over $100 on some great books. Will definitely return!

Let me start with this. I actually rate this a 3.5 but I rounded up. Reasons below:…read more The location is in a downtown old school Main Street area. I like that!!! It's not the most modern or the by new today standards cleaner. But it has the classic look I grew up with. The staff was nice and helpful. I met the owner before I he left for the night. I thought he was friendly and knowledgeable. The main reason I rated this so high was because of the back issues. There is a large amount of back issues and priced very well. I was able to find books that are hard to find except on the internet. If you are looking for a book that is hard to find try here first.

So much more to offer and they rotate stock (and or just sell it really quickly). If you're into comics, this store needs to be on your list of places to check out.

Always pop in here for a few minutes when we are in the area.
