That's why they call the store at the front. You have to be aware that they have four separate stores instead of one with four different departments. If you aren't and ask questions as I did, you will be treated as though you are demented. The tone I encountered was condescending at best. The manager, a woman, had no problem with their behaviour. She is okay with discriminating per age against customers. These employees are proud to make it clear that first-time customers and anyone over 40 are not welcome here. All customers should be treated with courtesy, regardless of age or familiarity with the store. If you are not familiar with the store or are over 40 they don't want you to shop here. I'd like to know how old the owner of this store, which is for some reason, made up of four little stores in the same location, even is.

My first impression...wow...this comic bookstore is super well organized. Large font hanging placards make it very easy to peruse rows of comics, graphic novels, and collectibles. The prices of the comic books were reasonable. One of the highlights of my visit was finally finding Black Panther Marvel comics after being on the hunt for them. Austin Books & Comics had a solid selection, making it clear they care about stocking both popular titles and meaningful characters. Seeing Black Panther prominently represented felt especially rewarding, and it turned my visit into a successful and memorable one. In addition, one of the sales representatives pointed me to the Black Panther section of comic books. Today, I learned that most comic books come out about monthly and they come in a series. For Black Panther, they had 4 comic books in the series. Now, I need to consult with my brother to determine which ones I should purchase for my nephew. Happy to have found the comics I have been searching for....

The area it is in is a strip mall so there are other things around to take a look at. On one visit, my friend wanted to know the status of an order she had placed, and if the shop could change the name on her order. The guy behind the counter helped change the name no problem. He was super efficient and even checked if there was anything else that needed to be altered in the system on the shop's end. I thought this was really rad. They have the standard comic book store items. It is not huge, but it is well organized and they're willing to order any books they do not have in stock already. Stop in if you're in the area.

From the outside, it sits quietly in a North Austin shopping center near Hop Doddy's. If you blink, you might miss it. Once you step through the doors, you feel transported to a totally different place like Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the Harry Potter story. You find shelves of comics, books, games...everywhere your imagination can take you. Dragon's Lair has been part of the Austin community since 1986. You feel a rush to flip through comics, try on costumes or transport yourself to a fantasy land. New releases co-exist with long loved series. Graphic novels, tabletop games, miniatures, dice, and collectibles are readily available. The prices at Dragon's Liar appear reasonable. According to the store manager, the tables within the store are reserved for Magic tournaments, Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) campaigns, and board games spread across tables. The energy is welcoming fostering collaboration between new and existing players. The shop cats, Diana and Brigid, wander through aisles like they own the place, which makes Dragon Liar feel homey and welcoming. The store stays open late sometimes, acknowledging that games and stories don't always fit neatly into set hours. Dragon's Lair is huge, busy, sometimes overwhelming in a good way. It reflects Austin's creative culture...inclusive, and deeply passionate.

I've had several instances where one card is missing and I needed to make a separate trip to pick up the missing cards.

Unfortunately the experience was pretty disappointing. The two gentlemen up front seemed much more focused on packing online orders than interacting with customers in the store.

It made the environment feel pretty unwelcoming, which was surprising given the reputation this place has. Because of that, I probably won't be returning.
