    Ever since John took over the store it has been a pillar of the community. Comics Scene is…read moreeverything you want a local comic/card store to be. The staff are knowledgeable, helpful and most importantly they make you feel welcome. Shout out to John, Steve, Nicky, Adrian, Zak and Madison!

    Small place makes interacting with friendly staff unavoidable…read more To say this place is small is an understatement. It's about the size of my living room. That said, they manage to pack a lot into this tiny joint. Right in the middle of the store are huge storage bins for back issues of comics. Underneath the bins are more long boxes filled with comics. Everything is clearly labeled, making things easier to locate. Most labels are by character name (i.e. Green Lantern) or title name (Justice League, X-Men). You might have to do a little digging, however, as multiple volumes/series are lumped together under one heading. When I couldn't find something specific, the staff were quick to jump in to help me find what I wanted. Along the side walls are more back issues. Along the back wall are the current issues for the week/month. The counter along the left has glass display cabinets featuring high-priced comics under lock and key. Statues, toys, memorabilia, artwork, action figures and Funkos are displayed for sale throughout any and all available spaces. Price-wise, they are pretty fair. They didn't seem to jack up the prices of variant cover back issues like some other stores do. And, when I purchased over $250 worth of stuff, the owner, John, gave me a break on the price of a few items. They recently hired some new staff, and they are slowly re-organizing everything to better utilize the limited space. But, with 1000's of comics, it's a work in progress. Not a big store, but punches above its weight class.

    My initial rating for this store would have been a five but after my experience today, I will never…read moreset foot in that store again. I was visiting Victoria with my family on the weekend (for my birthday, no less). While in Legends, I found a book I was interested in. There was however, no price on the book. I took it to the counter and asked the gentleman (I'm assuming the owner) the price. He told me it was $25.19. Since I was on a trip with my family I figured I had better be fiscally responsible seeing as how I was already purchasing other books and we had more places to visit (not to mention I had my daughter with me and thought it would be a good example to set). I had a short but friendly conversation with the owner about my town and I left thinking that it was such a great experience. As we drove further up Island, I began to regret my decision. When we arrived back home, I called a friend of mine in Victoria and asked if she'd be willing to pick the book up for me. She was more than happy to oblige. She was there first thing this morning and picked up the book explaining it was for me, the guy who was visiting from out of town. He charged her $51.00, saying that he had given me the American price but I had turned it down. First of all, not once did he mention to me that it was the American price, nor that he was giving me a deal that would expire if I declined purchase. Had that been the case, I would have snapped it up, thinking I would be saving some money if I were to find it elsewhere. Secondly, since when is the Canadian price 100% more than the American price?! I've looked it up online. He obviously took advantage of the situation (and my friend) and made himself a nice profit. Basically, he punished me for not buying it right away. Great customer service. It's a shame because I thought it was a great little shop with a good selection. I would have made it my first stop on my next visit to Victoria but that's not going to happen. I thought the owner was a nice guy but it turns out he's just a greedy SOB. I guess the lesson for my daughter is, don't trust anybody, even if they seem affable. The worst part of this situation is that it's going to be very difficult for me to enjoy the book as this experience will stick with me every time I see it. So happy birthday to me and a big F**K YOU to Legends.

The "fake geek girl" investigators, the "I dont know why all of a sudden they're trying to force diversity down our throats" complainers, the "you've probably never heard of it" condescenders. A lifelong lover of comics, and this shop was the very first comic place I ever felt comfortable. Gareth is a gem of the community who highlights and makes space for marginalized fans and creators alike, and it gives me great joy to support this business, it's the only place I buy comics.

    Large selection of new and past issues of comics to browse from…read more This is the first comic book shop I have found in Coquitlam (Port Moody). It's kind of located away from the main strip in a non-descript building. Once you enter, head to the far wall for all the latest comics. On your way there, you'll also find aisles and aisles filled with boxes of old comics. A quick perusal had me finding 20+ year old comics available. Comics are very well organized with labeled partitions. I had no trouble locating some of my favorite titles. That said, there were many back issues missing from the title I was pursuing. Prices, however, we're good since they were virtually cover price for 3-4 year old comics. The staff are friendly. In the short time I was there, a few regulars dropped by and were greeted like long-time friends. This store also has a large selection of Dungeons and Dragons figures.....the kind that you paint and role-play with. Not my thing, but it's available if you like that sort of thing. Also, they have a small selection of action figures, statues and busts of comic book characters, although prices seem a bit higher than I have seen in Vancouver shops. All in all, a good way to relive your childhood one comic book at a time.

    Well, they have a 'real life' comic-book-guy. (seriously). This must count for one star at least…read more Of all things to say... this place is a 'legit' comic store. I hope every town or city has one like this. I don't know if comic-book-guy works there anymore, but I used to go in at super random times, and - without fail - there would always be a debate/discussion/nerd-out on (and this is all a positive): - Who was stronger, Green Hulk or Grey hulk? - Why your D/D character can't carry his battle axe upright on his back. - The new Marvel movie (pick your poison) was just so wrong! - Why DC comics are an eighth of a centimetre taller than Marvel - Singing lyrics to some obscure Gen X indie band. - Sheer silence if a hot girl I was dating accompanied me in. lol. Not kidding. Conversations would come to a full stop as we entered the room. Their older dungeony location was more... 'mom's old basement' - haven't been in the new place so really can't comment on them now... But the owners and his peons have been around for decades - so that's pretty rad. Bringing the authentic (and may I add ORIGINAL) comic-book-geek-chic to the Tri Cities. A suburban comic institution if you will.
