We ended up staying there for almost an hour, very entertained by the shop owner and his employee! He told us so many cool stories, showed us oddities, cool collector stuff, and told fun jokes.

Best comic book store EVER!!! I've been a comic book collector since I was 13 and have been to…read moreseveral comic shops and this is by the far best I've ever been too. I came across this store from boyfriend who is in the military and currently stationed in Buffalo. As an anniversary gift he was on the hunt for issue #300 of the amazing Spider-Man. I've been trying for years to get a hold of this comic but could never find it at a reasonable price nor in good condition. My boyfriend found Empire Comics and talked with the store owners. They went above and beyond to help him! Not only did they managed to get a hold of the comic but were able to get one that was highly graded! I was in disbelief when I saw it and had to see this place for myself! I'm from CA and during my visit to see my boyfriend during the holidays, I went in to the store. I was welcomed by the store owners who were incredibly friendly and down to earth. They are fluent in all marvel and some anime. The store has a ton of good finds but if your looking for something specific they will go above and beyond to help you find it. As a comic collector and marvel nerd this means the world to me. I strongly value a business that goes above and beyond for their customers. After choosing a handful of comics, the store owners were kind enough to throw in a free comic and because I told them of my love for Spider-Man, they also threw in a free poster. But the best part was, free Christmas cookies were thrown in too! I had such a blast the entire time I was there. I really appreciate that they were so welcoming unlike other comic book stores who are often after your money or feel superior in their knowledge and like to belittle their customers. I will for sure be a regular for them all the way from California. Thank you Empire Comics for your fantastic service and awesome experience!

However rest assured, once you find it there is nothing you will want to miss once inside! Comic Books, Toys, Artwork, Statues...this place has a ton of stuff you just HAVE to check out. Prices are very reasonable and Action Figure Portal accepts cash, credit AND Paypal. Very convenient. In addition, if there is something you want but dont see, she can and will order it for you. The staff is super friendly too, but minimal. When I say minimal I mean the staff is one ultra friendly old golden retriever that goes by the name, Dude. He is the dude, the duder and the dudeliest. He usually just sits quietly but if your lucky he will get up and offer a personal greeting :) Check out Action Figure Portal asap and also check out thier fb profile for up to date items that come into the store. You wont wanna miss this place if you love this kinda thing. 100% worth the drive from Buffalo area. A++

ComicCon events are held in this establishment. Perfect for year-round visits, I can hardly wait to return!
