This comics shop is small and unassuming, but it's a gem. The place is like my bar. I'll go there…read moreto pick up my monthly books and end up staying over an hour talking to Lou, the owner, and the other patrons about anything and everything. If you're a collector of current, single-issue comics, that is this store's specialty, but if you want graphic novels or collectibles, you can still order those too. Lou is extremely knowledgeable. He has rarely recommended a book to me that I haven't enjoyed, and he won't steer you in the direction of bad books just to make a sale. Just make sure you have cash in your wallet before you go though, because this store is cash only.

Guy running the store was very nice and helpful. Nothing too overpriced, just about what you would expect for comics these days. I will likely shop here again.

For example, I usually leave piles of comics all over then When I'm doing picking comics I decipher which we'll actually be taking home and they've picked one of our piles once ( it was a misunderstanding). Secondly ,the selection is excellent, it's fun just looking through the 1$ comics. Lastly, they have the greatest sales ever! In July or June whichever it was they had customer appreciation month it was 50% percent off the 1$ comics. In that same month, on the weekend they even lowered the 50cent comics to 30cents . It my favorite shop of any kind at the moment . The shop is quite flabbergasting!

This is one of those shops where your significant other has to pull you out of. So many titles I…read morecould literally spend hours going through all the long boxes for back issues. That 50 for 50% off deal does not help. Buy 50 or more back issues and get it 50% off! Being the comic crack addict I am, I can easily do 50. Prices are competitive, didn't see anything overpriced. Staff is super friendly, but if you come in asking for maps or puzzles be prepared to be hit on the head. I love how their name badges are nicknames like Boomhauer and Overlord. Address them by those names to give em a smile. Large variety of comics both old and current. There are action figures n games too but I didn't pay much attention to them. Very spacious. Supplies are well priced and in good variety.

I'm a big fan of retro game shops, so I was excited to visit this place while staying with a friend…read morein the area. It was a mixed experience. While their selection is decent, the prices are pretty much all on par with or higher than what you can expect to find online for the same items. This is pretty typical for local game shops so I don't hold that against them. However, what was weird was as soon as we walked in, we were apparently on a livestream they were doing. That's kind of weird to be filmed immediately upon entering a business, particularly with no written warning outside. We still walked around inside (thankfully mostly out of camera range), but the employees seemed very intent on their stream and keeping things "interesting" with their commentary. It was overall a pretty off-putting experience, despite the fact that their business otherwise seemed like a cool addition to the local business environment. I would consider returning here again in the future to give them another try, though I have to state the obvious: first impressions are important, and running a business still remains more about the customers in your store than your following online. Overall: 3.0 stars ---- Pros: - Nicely-laid out store with a good presentation. - Prices are pretty on par with most other small retro gaming stores: same/higher prices than online, though still fun to look through and support if you find something you like. - Available street parking outside. Cons: - Walking into an active stream and being on camera without warning might seem quaint considering how online the world is today, but I wasn't a fan. I would have been somewhat more okay with this if they had put up a sign outside about it. Also, their commentary was pretty typical for the online gaming community but a bit off-color for public consumption in terms of professionalism.
